You didn't forget about Joshka Gustav, did you? He committed to Mike MacIntyre's staff in 2017 and they put him on a gray shirt, delaying his enrollment until January of 2019. Mel Tucker's staff is staying true to that. The 6-foot-3, 230-pound Germany native is expected to play outside linebacker but has the talent and experience to play tight end as well.
