Welcome to Gabe's buddy .... OT Adam Solomon ... nice addition to OL group. Nice size at 6'6" 320 lbs .. he plays tackle, had a couple starts but mostly special teams play.

.... and the best part, I just confirmed from U of I site that he got his degree in December, so he'll be here for spring ball ... which I guess makes sense or they could NOT have announced this like they did. Always good to have transfers here in time for spring ball.

Though their website has him at 305 lbs .. might be old info ? Or someone has their thumb on scale at ISU.

I don't know who's slotted to play at Right Tackle next year, and if this guy's any better. Never hurts to try to get better on the O-line. Big guys are hard to come by..

Hopefully Larry Boyd is next!

Hopefully Larry Boyd is next!

Boyd could be a great get if his grades are straight.
