Lightbourn, a transfer from Nebraska, is built more like Beavers outside linebacker Hamilcar Rashed Jr. While at Camas High School earlier in his career, Lightbourn once pitched coach Jon Eagle to let him try a 50-yard field goal. "When you get a quarter back sack," Eagle told Lightbourn. "He sat there for three or four seconds, and says, 'Well, I'd have to play defense.' I said, 'That's exactly right.' He said, 'I'll take a pass on that." Lightbourn is a big guy. Maybe not big enough to play defense, bu t big enough to know when there's a problem. Two years ago during his third year at Nebraska, it hit Lightbourn that not all was right. Shortly after he was replaced as the Cornhuskers' regular punter, Lightbourn sensed he was having mental issues. | | |
