We'll play Poole or move over Brini


You arent wrong.
But it should be understood that poole and brini have been leapfrogged by every talent that steps on campus for safety.

Tykee Smith

He has filled in at safety based on formation. So he has experience. But the film review i saw did not look good (could be better with different coaching maybe?)

Or we'll throw Daniel into the mix quickly. Daniel is an impact player at safety but will obviously be where Cine was when he showed up. 

Agreed

But my point was that Burns was expected to be plug and play without dropoff. A championship calibre team has different standards

Webb called him "a better version of me." Smith was 3rd team All American at WVU and had 61 tackles last season. I mean, it wasn't the SEC but this guy seems well regarded and may very well take the starting job at STAR.

Definitely true. For a long time, I didn't even know that Brini was still on the team. Then he stepped up in the bowl game and played well at STAR when were down a bunch of players. He's a 3-star guy that came in with no fanfare but he stuck around and provides experience (and at 6-2, 210, he's got good size).

He and Poole both seem like hard working, loyal depth players.
