Highly recruited. Redshirted as a freshman. I believe he missed last year due to a knee or leg injury. Not seeing him participate even on special teams. What’s his status? Seems like if healthy quite an athlete that could play with ‘backer and defensive end.

Read this kid was on the participation list against NIU. Didn’t see any statistics. Does that imply special teams and just nothing came his way?

Again this kid was highly rated coming in but suffered damaged wheels early on. Not the easiest to rebound from. In catching the game did anyone take note of him? Conversation about the D line in playing ‘backers at DE. Statistically he has size. If he’s as athletic having recovered and he seeing the field it could bode well.

Can anyone who caught the game weigh in on this?

I’m pretty sure he had a few plays at LB against NIU. I noticed Moment was running around kinda gimpy on a few plays and Stuckey may have stepped in for a “moment” (pun intended). I think he was on special teams too though.

Yeah, he was injured, and fighting through a lot of depth, including other highly touted recruits. Right now (counting an injured Zaire Barnes and not AJ Thomas), the 2s are Selig, Motz, and Bonnema, and the 3s are Wallace, McCree (who has really worked his way up from special teams), and Stuckey, who has played in two games this season. To be a starter, he's going to have to beat out Selig, Bonnema, or Wallace, but if he stays healthy expect to see him more next season (if Heyward and Thomas graduate).

Then again, with the way these nagging injuries are going, we could be down to playing safeties at linebacker by the MAC championship! It makes you wonder if the sheer amount of practices play a role in that it feels like late-season injuries, or if it's the lack of consistent practices and games and spring training. At least most of these injuries are not devastating!
