Nice to OJ keep working hard when many could have felt under utilized. Keep chugging along and make things work out.

I have never been. Is it the kind of thing that everyone should do at least once?

How far Eddie Jackson has come. I was one of the guys who had written him off completely.

I'm a little surprised neither Cam Robinson or Hootie Jones made the list.

He was pretty bad in coverage as a CB at times wasnt he. I think a lot of us wrote him off. But he worked hard and found his way. (alone with some great coaching)

Yeah, probably the best returning safety in the country, could be a high draft pick. Not bad for a 3 star who had injuries and a position change.

He showed signs of greatness his Freshman year. Tore his ACL in 2014 spring practice but still managed to see the field in 2014, amazingly. People gave him shite, but I mean, 8 months coming off of ACL surgery, it was kind of hard for me to write him off. I figured he'd excel at safety.

I think we all knew he was a true safety.

That would have been a media circus.

You may be correct a lot. But you seem to always have a story about how you was right about something lol. I'm probably just thinking this up. I like your post so screw me. Roll Tide.

I mean, you probably have a point, but it excites me when a kid that a lot of our fan base has trashed and written off ends up being a baller. I'm a sick frick.
