I wonder if he's earning his degree this spring. He was a 2022 prospect out of Gahanna and redshirted his first year at Toledo.

Definitely plays a lot bigger than his size. Almost Tillman-esque.

He was named MAC POTW after a performance against us. Man he just looks the part when you put the shoe on the other foot and look at him when he's going after AJC.

Someone on the Toledo board said he doesn't have an offensive game beyond 10 feet and I was like huh, that sounds like Leon Williams. Turns out for this point in their careers, the stats between Leon and Javan are very very comparable.

DW3 didn't venture outside of the lane either but guess what, I will take a million Dwight Wilsons so sour grapes Toledo. Javan's ours now!

Good. We've had too many bigs recently that swing out and abandon their post too much.
