He was held out of the Ute game due to a nagging injury. He should play this weekend against Kansas. Also he's played in too many games to redshirt.
Dude has the potential to be an all-timer.
Don't forget... he just got home from his mission this summer. No spring ball to acclimate or get his body right. Wait until he's had an entire offseason of conditioning and spring ball to get in rhythm with the QB's. Dude is going to be legit. I also think we'll see him returning kicks at some point next season and beyond.
