Sorry if it's somewhere on the board somewhere but what's up with eddie Jackson? Is he going to be ok?

Also tony brown needs to start for the rest of the year. Cyrus has played well but I think eddie and tony give us 2 corners on an island. Will be nice when Humphrey can spell them

Cyrus played good yesterday...I think we need to stop beating up on the kid. He came here to play offense. shite could be a lot worse. Saw Eddie limp off the field in the game before FLA. Probably just a precaution don't want him to re injure himself.

Cyrus was alright, and Washington made up for blowing his assignment on the TD pass with his interception. Brown wasn't spectacular but he played really hard and had a lot of fire in him making tackles. He is very small. Still want Jackson and Cyrus in over Brown but we'll see.

Saban said that Eddie can't seem to get healthy. Personally I'd rather us sit him until tamu unless there is an emergency.

Brown ain't all that small. I loved seeing him out there balling. Will be an absolute stud soon. Hope we get Eddie back soon.

Isn't Tony 6'1 194 or something? I know in recruiting it was always Hump that got criticized for his size.

hump has not seen the field and my guess unless we have major injuries he is being RS.

It is odd I don't remember one time Cyrus got caught on yesterday and he is the one that should be benched...

Everyone wants to put Cyrus on the bench and start Eddie and Tony when Cyrus has done nothing wrong. I don't remember FLA throwing to his side but once and it was in zone coverage...He played great vs WVU.

Coaches can't have this line of thinking, but I sure can. I want Cyrus to play because I really like him. The fact that he's improved so much tells me he was giving his all last year when he was struggling so much. It's got to be a great feeling to be an asset to the team now and I want him to reap the rewards of his hard work.

I think CNS really likes Cyrus too. That's why I don't see him being unseated but we'll see.

What we really need to do is play 3 CBs in nickel rather than 3 safeties. That would include Tony Brown.

I think we need to stop making excuses for him. Jackson and TB have both shown this year that they're better.

Doesn't matter. Saban will keep with his seniority crap no matter who plays better.
