The junior made the jump from Australia to America and got his first taste of football this season at IMG Academy (FL).
Faalele was the main reason that Jim Harbaugh and the Michigan staff went to Australia on the satellite camp tour this last summer. The 6-foot-10, 390-pound athlete made the move from Melbourne, Australia to Bradenton, Florida to pursue a football career after playing Rugby and Basketball in his home country.
