re: Defensive mvp so far?

I do want to give him a shout out though. He is a great guy all around. My kid is a RedCoat Trumpet and JD is constantly showing the band a lot of love. The RCs love him and he's made it a point to come into the stands with them. Really appreciate the support he sends the band's way. DGD!

He's been my favorite player on the team pretty much since LSU 2018.

And his personality shows on the televised games. He encourages the kicker and backups, etc... he definitely comes off as the big teddy bear who wants to do right for all of Dawgnation.

I think we have good guys on the DL behind him. But he is like Roquan Smith with our defensive planning. We can scheme an entire game based upon what he can do. We might be fine in 2021 without him, but everyone is going to be asked to play differently in terms of scheme and responsibilities.
