Yesterday while in Corvallis, I was able to speak to several position coaches about the redshirt guys, including a sit down with Coach Chad. He had one redshirt in Elu Aydon (Thor Katoa was injured all year so he didn't have anything to add there).
While the Redshirt Reviews are typically released prior to Spring Practice, one piece of info was time sensitive and I thought you'd all like it now.
Coach Chad talked alot about Elu working to transform his body this summer/fall. He has done a tremendous job, but instead of going home to Samoa where he could be tempted to eat poorly and not work out, he is spending the break with his aunt in Hawaii and will be training and eating properly the entire three weeks. Coach Chad expects big things from him and wants him ready.
