Nope. He's probably the best coverage Safety in the country. I've heard people say shite like he gets lucky with his INTs. He had 8 in 2010 and looking back you could argue 1 was lucky.


Some Bama fans are unbelievable. Even Skip Bayless could tell that Reid is better than Lester.

Um, go back and read my first post ITT. I said Reid is a better overall safety, Lester is better in coverage. Most agree.

Some LSU fans are unbelievably bad at reading threads.

Lester would be my choice hands down. I know him, I coached him, I would say that makes him mine. In Youth football he was trained to tackle...period. To win by attrition. If you dont pick Robert then you are going to need one thing.........a lot of body bags.

This is also the poster with the brilliant belief that Nick Saban is bad for Alabama.

I agree y'all should fire him immediately

Reid is easily a better tackler.

FWIW, I would go with Reid, but there is no way he is 6'2.

Bama plays a lot of one high coverage and that puts Lester in the deep middle most of the time. Not a lot of tackles to be had back there unless the front guys suck.

Oh yeah, he and Julio stop by all the time. Lester was here for graduation and signed a bunch of stuff for my youngest son's class. (Lesters nephew is in that class)
Julio got us an Under Armor deal worth 15k a year in gear and just signed us up for a Gator Ade one also.

I still give rides to DJ Fluker when he is in town. He still doesnt have a car

Reid is a better tackler and is WAY more physical imposing.
