That's good to hear.
I remember reading about him a few weeks ago and it sounded like we didn't have a shot. I love this pickup. DT is one of the positions that I'm most concerned about. Bringing in a guy who will likely contribute immediately is huge. His 40 time is extremely impressive for a DT.

Sweet! Looks pretty fast on that film. Seemed like he has great pursuit once a play breaks down. However, didn't look like he was getting all that great of a push off the snap.
Looks like he kind of stands up first to see the play, he doesn't fire off the ball. Probably does it because he's just use to being so much stronger than the competition and he doesn't get pushed around or knocked on his butt like he will in the Pac-10 if he does the same thing. Lucky though that can be coached, Bair did the same thing 2 years ago now look at him.

.."if you think he's quick on mud....can you imagine seein' this kid play on turf, O M G he's gonna be a beast! WELCOME Jared...can't wait to see you terrorizing backfields for coach AZZ!"
He is carrying a 3.0 GPA and it is just a matter of completing the course work so for the meantime, Ebert is a hard working student rather than a football player. When he does arrive on campus in Eugene he'll have three years to complete two years of competition.
A JC DT who will actually qualify!

He doesn't have a UW offer.
