Was he going to start or second string?

He was basically 1B at our nickel spot last year. A good week of practice, and he would start over Mark Webb who got most of the starts. He was the dime DB for much of the season. And when Webb got dinged, he was the nickel.

Tyreque the freak Stevenson got more playing time as the season progressed and as we needed help against larger tight ends.
So it would have been likely that he would have been 2nd string or just the dime DB.

He balled out in the sugar bowl against texas. He had a few other games where he was a hero. But overall, lacked consistency to knock off Webb or hold back Stevenson.

It is a loss because depth at DB is crucial when facing a team like LSU where we went to 7 DBs.
