like who? VHIII? He is an anomaly.

We've had true freshmen dominate at other positions. Some true freshmen are just badass right out of the gates, but most of them aren't, 5 star or not.

VHIII is one example, yes. FSU signed a guy a few years ago out of GA that we almost got, and he was BA right out of the gate too. LSU plays freshmen in the secondary fairly often as well over older, less talented guys. It can be done...but the system can't take two years to learn.

Hmm Greg Reid. Forgot all about him. He was awesome and then disappeared when he got kicked off of FSU. I just saw in his Wikipedia that he participated in the first ever nfl veteran's combine. I wonder if he will make a comeback.

I hope that Tony Brown and Marlon Humphrey are talented as those two, but I'm not sure that they are.
