He played in the Michigan and Arkansas games - mostly on special teams. Not sure why he did not play against Western KY.

He's played in garbage time, and is a special teams starter. He has had a little trouble with the playbook, but that's understandable for true freshman db in Saban's defense.

Mop up duty in 2 games and PT on STs.


He also saved a ton of money switching to Geico.

I knew he would suck! He can't grasp the playbook because his head's up his GFs arse!

There is not a freshman safety that's going to start right away for Nick Saban. Mark Barron didn't and neither did Ha'Sean Clinton-Dix. Landon Collins will move into Robert Lester's role next year.

This. Barron started on special teams in 2008 and played in garbage time. He didn't play any significant snaps that year.

Dee Milliner says hi.

(I get what you're saying, and yes I know he's not a safety)

he is playing as a freshman for Saban...that probably means Saban knows he will leave early and thinks a redshirt is a waste.

Corner is a different game all together in any defense. The safeties have a lot of checks and reads, that freshmen often can't do consistent enough.

That was at LSU where he couldn't get the kind of talent he gets at Bama.

Remember Mark making some errors against Utah, and thinking...sheesh, how bad is #4. Well, I most certainly wrong.

Landon Collins and Denzel Devall will be two of our best players before they leave for the NFL.

Louisiana still producing great players.

Our defense is complicated, a few ahead of him in terms of understanding the D. Had he come in January, he would see more of the rotation more than likely. He will definitely see more playing time as the season progresses as depth is always good (and we got Ole Miss and Mizzou coming up).

But to reiterate some nonsense... BAMA STAAAACCCKKKED something something FFUUUUUUKKKKDDDD

According to Saban, not bad now that she's learned to keep her teeth out of the way.
