re: Alabama forced to play 3 freshman DB's on Sat?

Minkah and Humphrey (starter) have already seen a good bit of PT. Humphrey has played well so far as a starter and hasn't had any big huge coverage bust yet. For a first year starter, he's doing well, despite giving up some catches. Most of the catches he's given up have been with him in perfect coverage and the receiver just making a good play. Chad and Treadwell will both look his way I'm sure. Minkah looks like a star in the making, but just hasn't gotten the experience yet. When he came in for the Wisconsin game, he had a very physical play in getting the sack and has 2 passes defended. He probably has given up some passes, but I just didn't pay attention that much when he was in the game. Both are very good players.

Harrison is a highly touted freshman who's also done a nice job since he's arrived at 'Bama. He gained some praise over the off-season for his progression. He blocked a punt last week, so look out for him on special teams. Starting though, I expect him- much like the other freshman- to have some woes early on in the game due to lack of experience. Ronnie Harrison has "really done a good job"- was back in the off-season.
