Default Transfer LB James Bryant

This is the player who transferred from Miami.

6-3 257 lbs, this is a pro sized linebacker the 3-4 defense loves large backers like this. I hope he's a crusher in the middle for Louisville.

Parcells released tackling machine, Zach Thomas in Miami because of his size, he doesnt fit the traditional mold of a 3-4 linebacker.

So Louisville with a Michigan defensive coordinator and a big backer like Bryant, I hope we can shut down some running games this year.

Quote:
Has exceptional speed and is a tremendous closer in pursuit...Can cover the entire field because of his range...Is a big hitter both on defense and as a blocker on offense, and he loves contact...Has shown the ability to overpower blockers who get in his way...Saw most of his playing time on special teams as a true freshman in 2004
He's a senior and there are lots of other questions for the defense but I hope Bryant is the real deal, losing Myles to the NFL draft is going to hurt the linebacker corps I hope the answer is on the current roster.
