4th or 5th string? WHAT??!! Cousin improved a ton? How do you know that? Cousin hardly even played last year. Brandon arguably played more than any other DLineman. Maybe I'm blind then I guess..
What in the blue hell are you talking about? The coaches have consistently said he had more ability than McDOnough and McDonough was on the cusp of the NFL. He wasn't behind Coe or Irving because they play a different position and Cousin never passed him last year. At worst, if Cousin does pass him, he's still playing 30 snaps a game.
He must have realized how much he was letting everyone on this message board down by making the selfish decision to move on with his life and not get his brains beaten in for one more year. Thank god he came to his senses, I think we can all forgive him now.
The staff had a big plan to run both Coe and Irving at DT in passing situations with two pass rushing DEs. It would have definitely affected him. That won't work out anymore.
I think SighClone is probably right on as well if that is true.
How many 5th year returning starters at NG go to 4th or 5th string? None of them.
I guess agree to disagree. Playing time had to have had a big effect on his decision IMO. Not saying it was the only thing, but I really don't think it is a big coincidence.
It's pretty clear Irving and Coe did not have football as a priority. Too bad because they are both athletic freaks. The team's better off without them.
I really didn't want to make a bunch of posts talking about Jensen not getting PT, I really figured it was pretty obvious.
The important thing is that he is back and he is going to help the team a ton. Adding him back makes me much more optimistic for next season.

This is what I heard as well. I heard it was a combo of Irving being disrespectful and Coe not holding himself responsible, but yet likely to see the field ahead of BJ.
Wonder if that was a reason some of our other DL like Kron left the team.
Here's what Trey Scott thinks of it: http://iowastate.scout.com/2/1396796.html
He still thinks Cousin starts.
Hopefully this keeps us from needing to slide a 3-tech to NT and that keeps us from having to slide one of the JUCO DEs to 3-tech.

Finally some good news on the DT position. I wonder how long it will take to get him back to playing shape though. I bet a big guy like that loses muscle mass pretty fast when they are not lifting every day. Of course he may still be doing some lifting, who knows. Fortunately Fall is a long ways off.
Oh ya, and WTF did that come from? Him coming back is almost as mysterious as him leaving in the first place.

I'm going to say this sarcastically before some dumbarse says it seriously:
"Considering this is pretty much the same thing as if Devron Moore comes back, I hope CPR also makes him be a walk-on"
Again, sarcastically, but you know sooner or later some moron would say it.
