He played in the second half today. So I guess redshirting him is out the window?

Yep and great move by staff. We won't need him in 2 yrs and that's no offense to him. We need him the next 2 games to make a bowl game! Got him some snaps today to see the speed of the SEC and to help get him in game shape. Now, he has 2 weeks to finish being fully ready and to replace either #27 or 35.

I tend to agree. I wish they had put him in earlier to be honest. They didnt bring him in until that last drive.

I really hope after the bye he's ready to play big minutes in Coleman's spot.

Or the nickel. Swafford/Toney cant get it done. The nickel is crucial in the pass and run and neither are big or fast enough.

Maybe his clot issues are finally fully healed.

I'd like to see Jones on the outside. I'd rather have Toney/Swafford on the field than Coleman. He and McNeil are horrible.

McNeil is better than Bmo though..

That's what's so sad

Coleman is better than them. He can at least tackle. Swafford can't tackle and Toney can't do anything well to me.

Jones on the outside, slide Coleman to nickel. Instant upgrade in the secondary.

I might put Coleman at nickel over them but if a pass is thrown to Coleman's receiver in man to man, it is an automatic completion. He's the worst cover corner I have seen in the SEC in a long long time.

Exactly. It's pitiful.

Cover corner????? Don't do that. he's just a corner in coverage. :lol:

Yes. My mistake.

He's like a LB running downfield with a WR. I'm not sure if it's physically possible for him to turn his head and play the ball.

Stiff hips...and neck apparently.

(Thread bump) No one has mentioned anything about Riyahd during spring, any news on him?

#3 CB behind Cam and Emmanuel (not counting Coleman at nickel). Ahead of Foreman from my digging. Likely just Sr depth

What about Payne?

 

[OddFuture]

What about Payne?

My guess is he's a long-term nickel. I bet he starts 2-3 years there at UT

That's jmo though

His corn snake just died today.

This kid is more worried about what kind of shoes are on his feet than breaking into the 2 deep rotation IMO.
