Time to get some True Freshmen in?

I was wondering why Jacobs hasn't at least got some special team action. Maybe he has? with the 4 game rule do we expect to see anymore freshmen this year? Too bad Illinois isn't as bad as last year!

Still recovering from a knee injury. It'd be good to get him action but there's no reason to push it. Britt was gonna burn his shirt but then got dinged up during the BYE week so now it looks like they wanna save it for him.

The good news with this rule is Brents can play in all 3 of the final 3 games and still keep his redshirt, which is awesome for a guy like him.

I like the 4 game rule. Best thing the NCAA has done in a long time.

If you were talking Jacobs for some reason I was thinking it was a shoulder injury. I could be wrong.

In a recent interview with Seth Wallace it sounded like he was a full go and they’d like to play him and also Logan Lee if the opportunity presents it. Jacobs has traveled for every game, but it sounded like per Wallace was just a little behind the others but was starting to emerge.

He may have been nicked up in camp to start the yr... But I think he's been fine for awhile. I'd suspect we may see him and some others in some games if not all the last 4 on special teams if nothing else.
