Not quite at Justin Tuck's level yet, Minnesota junior Ra'Shede Hageman's new facemask is certain to garner its share of attention this season. It won't be the only thing drawing your eye to the mammoth defensive lineman, though, because he's a popular breakout candidate. In fact, BTN analysts Gerry DiNardo, Howard Griffith and Tom Dienhart gushed about the 6-6, 301-pound talent when they saw him at Minnesota practice last week. See the picture of Hageman's new facemask in this post.
Remember the name, Big Ten fans. Hageman could add his name to this season's loaded list of talented Big Ten defensive linemen. Here are a couple Hageman tweets:

DT. Ra'Shede Hageman at 6'6 300 has all the ability to be the most disruptive player on the field in 2012. #Gopher #B1G #BTN
