‘18 NJ DE Javontae Jean Baptiste (OSU Transfer - ND Verbal)

[irishandy]

Great addition to the defense, wish we had 1 more season with him. He'll be playing on Sundays.

 

[irishff1014]

He was good this year. Very streaky though.

 

[JamIrish]

OSUs trash is our treasure.

If im not mistaken, hes graded out higher than Both JT and Sawyer this season.

He did last year too, but the talking heads said it was due to him playing less. I was super stoked when we got him and he had a great season. I was expecting around 8ish sacks but other than that, he exceeded expectations. Super happy he got that TD last night, he deserves it.

Named a captain for the bowl game.

 

[Veritate Duce Progredi]

Named a captain for the bowl game.

He's earned it. What a great pickup from tOSU.

We gave them Styles in exchange for JJB. After 1 year, we're up 1000%

 

[choo choo]

Shout out to this man. What a player. He's been fun to watch and a great player. If we'd had him longer he'd be a Notre Dame Man. Not sure he isn't anyway.

Screw it...he is a Notre Dame man. Balled out all season....could of easily opted out but chose to play today. Glad we had him for this year

 

[DONTH8]

I would hold off till the first Sunday night game where he starts and says the school he played at. If he says Notre Dame, he’s an instant upgrade.

 

[pumpdog20]

We need higher standards for ND man

 

[Jeffwantpoppers]

Nah this man gave his all every game. I don’t care if he says Ohio state some Sunday night, he’s earned the right to be a ND man

The only blemish is the last play of the OSU game

Those don’t exist since Joe Schmidt was anointed

Exceeded expectations.

 

[Jimmy3Putt]

If the commissioner says, "DE, Notre Dame" when he's drafted next spring, then yes, ND Man.
If He says OSU......

There is no way he would be saying OSU. He seems all ND all season.

? JJB was on the field, on the other side of the line, exactly where he was supposed to be.

 

[INLaw]

Got more out of his one season here than his 3 or 4 at bucknuts. This is why we celebrate recruiting wins differently then everyone else bc it’s not just a win for our football team but a win for the student who can have a much different (read better) college experience that leads to a much better life. Just take football talking heads if you cant see a top to bottom difference between our alums and say someone from bucknuts or the U then I can’t help you. Wish we had him for his whole career.

No he wasn’t

 

[JamIrish]

No he wasn’t

He was definitely on the field for the last play and blew up his side. They ran away from him to the open side.

Okay I yield

 

[Grahambo]

One of my favorite players to watch all season. He absolutely gave it his all the entire season for a T10 defense. Named captain for a game in which we set a record for point differential.

Kudos to Coach Al too.

 

[tko]

And to take a blocked fg to the house at Stanford was a great moment. Loved the big fella staying inbounds down the sideline.

 

[rtrn2glory]

After watching Ohio St last night, he would've been the best DL on their team. He just isn't getting the hype Sawyer and JT is getting

 

[Rocketman84]

If the commissioner says, "DE, Notre Dame" when he's drafted next spring, then yes, ND Man.

Well of course he will say ND because he was here last.

 

[irishff1014]

I wish we had him for 2 years as well. His motor doesn’t stop, he is a smart player, and seem like another great rep for the university.

 

[irishandy]

100% class all season long and kudos to him for not opting out of the bowl game to play.

 

[CANONIZEFATHERSORIN]

Absolutely outstanding year for him, and so much credit for not sitting out the bowl

 

[BeauBenken]

He's a great example of why transferring can really work out for some. He went from a player that was used only in pass rushing situations to being an every down top-of-the-line DE. Made this defense much better.
