I never said Slay or Banks were bad but you have to admit the ones we have now gave up a shite ton of yards and big plays.

Not really. Our pass D issues was rarely our corners. Really only the UAB game was on them. Calhoun is f'n good. Redmond is f'n good. Jiles is pretty good when healthy. Cleveland is good.

Same thing happened this year that happened in Banks and Slay's SR years. Only we got even worse at FS since then. There's a finite number of scholarships to go around -- and the trenches are a far better use for them than adding a 6th string worth of corners.

In SEC only stats:
T#3 in INTs
#7 in YPA
T#6 in TDs allowed
#6 in OppoQB rating
#3 in comp%D
#1 in passes defended
#1 in PBUs

We were an average overall pass D. Don't let raw stats when teams threw an extra 10-12 times per game against us fool you.
