JSHoosier Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 Just curious, which Miami? OH or FL? EDIT: Nevermind. Commented before I read the release. Quote

This is a huge, huge pickup. It sounds like he left because there was some uncertainty with playing time next year. He's had a few shoulder surgeries and didn't get to play due to it this season. The fill in did well and he would have to compete with him for his final season. Quote
Hoosierfan2017 Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 Great pickup! Our line needs all the help it can get. Imo last year our problem was the line more than it was the skill players. I thought Ramsey/Ellison were actually fine for freshmen. Ramsey (or whoever the qb is) and Ellison will greatly benefit. Quote
BabyJandJDaddy Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 What kind of offers did he have coming out of high school? Quote

It looks like he was a Miami lean from the beginning so not much is out there. He was a 3 star from Fort Lauderdale and a legacy signing since his older brother Brandon Linder went to the U. Brandon is now the starting center for the Jacksonville Jaguars. Kor44 and CR3AMnCR1MS0N 2 Quote
CSP Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 Linder started 4 games in the OL as a true FR at Miami. I honestly do not care about his offers. Quote
Scot Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 I'm glad that Allen and co. are being creative, even if it means pilferage. In order for IU to ever "breakthrough" they will need to change the stigma of IU football, getting at least low level 4*'s on both sides of the LOS. The 4* OL kid from Detroit that looked like he was going to Bloomington, now to Ol Miss is another example. WayneFleekHoosier 1 Quote
TXHoosierDaddy Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 I wouldn't mind bringing in another grad transfer or two if the opportunity is there. This is exactly what Purdue did this year with Brohm and it made a huge difference. He had two or three guys turned instant starters.If Linder is fully healthy he is your starting center the entire year. Be interesting to watch to see what else CTA does this offseason regarding grad transfers/transfers/remaining recruits out there. ThompsonHoosier 1 Quote
