He had 6.5 sacks and six forced fumbles in 2012, then had just 13 tackles and three sacks -- all against Illinois -- last season. UNLV will be Carlton Fisk Jersey his third school. He signed with UCLA out of high school but was dismi sed by then-coach Rick Neuheisel before he ever played a game in 2010.
