'18 GA CB Jaycee Horn

They will just blame it on coaching.

True. I'm more concerned they won't blame anyone, and continue to simply claim he's this super-talented player who is just waiting to break out at any point. To me, its just very apparent that he is a good athlete, and an average DB (at best) with a below average football IQ.
 
I agree generally but I am putting a big asterisk by this game. Everything was different, the coverage, constant run support, no safety help, something like 6 throws on 92 plays.

I agree, this game is an aberration, but his play was consistent with his play last year; bad angles, bad tackling, and out of position. He just isn't a good football player. And maybe he hasn't been well-coached, but if he was as talented as we've been led to believe, that talent should have overcome ineffective coaching almost by accident at some point.
 
I wish Byrd was moved to CB. I hate thinking "turn your head" and move up 5 yards closer to the line of scrimmage every passing play.

Me as well, but with Smith still out and now JJ out, apparently for the season, I don't see anyway for that to happen.

kinda wondering if he has CP disease? Great athlete but just can't/won't learn/play the sport.

Haha. Come on, CP may not have been a good route runner, but there is no comparison in CPs production compared to Martin's. CP looked like the best athlete on the field almost every game, Martin looks lost.

He's not even half the athlete CP is, nor has he had a fraction of the impact. I literally can't name one specific positive play from Martin.

Your premise is sound though. He just doesn't have the desire, the mental capacity to understand, or both. His football IQ is off the charts bad.
 
So people are bashing a current player within a same position recruit's thread. Not wise. If Horn de-commits and you're looking for someone to blame, you only have to look in the mirror. Would suggest that if you have to bash a player, that you keep it in the football talk thread. Just saying....

Horn was at the UT-GT game and said,"let me sub in for Martin". So, if u are going to ride in on your high horse, make sure u read the posts that started the conversation or u just might fall off that horse.

lol that's just what a poster said. It wasn't the guy sitting behind Horn that posted that.

or he could be seeing the need, and how happy we are having him and seeing these comparisons would confirm that he is needed and wanted vs a certain school that allegedly scorned him twice.
 
Yes sir. I was talking all that smack to go read all the posts and although, I had read 'em all, I thought that was dude sitting behind Horn, who quoted him. Guess I just fell off my horse

Hey, it sounds like something he definitely might have said.

At least you can admit you made a mistake 👍🏻Don't see much of that anymore.
