Looking forward to Adam's article.
 
very nice pickup. It's been a sea change in how we approach JUCO's... and I think for the better. Not the foundation of our class, but really good at fixing holes in the lineup.

There will always be roster holes with attrition. WR was hit particularly hard in that 2012 class.
 
Why does he have to wait until '15 if he's a JuCo transfer? Me not understand.

He needs to graduate in December. That eliminates a lot of the transferrable credit issues.
 
So will this coming year be basically a red-shirt year and he will still have two to play two when he shows up in the spring, or does he burn a year this year and he shows up with one to play one?

He redshirted at ASU and will play 2 seasons at LB. Then, he will enroll at CU in January to participate in spring practices. He will then have 2 years to play 2 years at CU.
 
If 2015 was looking to be a good year, but with this 2015 class, I'm really hoping 2016 is something special!

Pretty sure that he went there for a year and RS. Here is his bio too, which leads me to believe he enrolled.

He was there for a year and redshirted. Apparently wasn´t thrilled about the coaching change and the subsequent change in the offense. Given the religious tones in some of his tweets, it also appears that maybe he didn´t feel he fit in there. As we all know, HCMM is a religious man as well, although he is not pushy about it.

Wouldn´t be surprised if Josiah was looking for a Pac 12 program that was headed by a coach he feels some kindred spiritual/religious connection with.

Regardless of the reasons, quite happy about this commit! Welcome aboard
 
Very nice. Welcome Josiah! Wonderful to have that kind of size on the outside. Wish him much future success as a Buff!
