Another Gaucho Note: J.J. Todd
To Redshirt This Season--(Oct. 5, 1999)

We haven't talked with J.J. Todd (6'-11" Fr. C) who recently started classes at UC Santa Barbara after graduating from Southern Section D-III AA Champion Chaminade, but we did see his "little" brother Jonathon this past weekend at one of the Rockfish "invitational" workouts at LA City College and both he and J.J.'s dad confirmed what we had been suspecting for a while, and that is that J.J. will be redshirting this season at UCSB. He's apparently very happy about the decision to do so, and it will give him a full year to work on strength and conditioning, and get a full year's worth of classes out of the way so that when he starts to go on the road during the season, he can take a much lighter courseload.
