5. Jamie Skalski

When you think about players with a lot to gain from a solid spring, you don’t have too much further than linebacker Jamie Skalski.

Skalski redshirted during his junior season, but now has the opportunity to take a starting role- whether that be at MIKE or WILL- with that linebacker group.

Skalski is a guy that has great pursuit of the football and would make a solid linebacker for the Tigers.

Can he have a big spring and lock in on a starting position? That remains to be seen.
