Is he any good?

He was last seen in a boot

 

[Keene-Flint]

Was Grantham there with him? Could be an easy transition to the program if he understands the scheme...

@DK_Thompson: If true, Jonathan Greenard is a great player and would be a nice proven player to help potentially replace Zuniga and Polite.

This is from the Louisville site:

2017: Appeared in 13 games, making five starts ... led the team with 15.5 tackles for loss and tied for team honors with 7.0 sacks ... finished 32nd nationally in tackles for loss and 47th in sacks ... totaled five tackles and a sack in the season-opening win over Purdue ... forced a fumble at North Carolina ... credited with four tackles and a career-high 3.0 tackles for loss versus the Tar Heels ... registered a sack and four tackles against No. 3 Clemson ... tallied a career-best 2.0 sacks at home versus Kent State ... notched 2.0 tackles for loss against Murray State ... totaled a career-high nine tackles and 1.5 tackles for loss versus Boston College ... tallied a pair of stops in road games at Florida State and Wake Forest ... registered a sack versus Virginia ... credited with five tackles, 2.0 tackles for loss and a sack versus Kentucky ... totaled five stops in the TaxSlayer Bowl loss against Mississippi State.

Looks like he got hurt against Bama to start the year and hasn't played this year.

Seems encouraging

He can’t be that good. He played for Louisville and we all know they don’t have a defense.

Grad transfer? Would he be sitting out a year?

Grad transfers are eligible immediately.

@RivalsChris: Jonathan Greenard was one of the standouts on defense this past Saturday. Here I highlight two plays of his in the first half.

I get that, but is he a Grad transfer?

 

[Captain Sasquatch]

Can’t hurt to have a guy with P5 experience and success coming in to help us out.

Oh, yeah he would be.

Louisville has no pass rushers.

Jonathan Greenard, 2015 Weakside defensive end - Rivals.com

 

[FireFoley]

Welcome aboard and good luck. Having been coached by some or all of the following: Pete Sirmon, Joe Lee Dunn jr. and Brian Van Gorder tells me he will probably need a lot of work regarding fundamentals!

 

[Gatorraid81]

Is this any indication that we aren't landing most of the defensive ends we're currently recruiting?

 

[maheo30]

I'd be surprised if he didn't start. He is a quality pass rusher.

2017: 15.5 tackles for loss, 7 sacks.

Here's the game against UK in 2017. Greenard played well.
