I think he’s star in our base D and he replaces Keys as the 2nd LB if we have a true nickel on the field. That was my original point.
I’m high on Spears. He’s the pure safety that everyone wants. The fact he was so close to breaking into the starting lineup as a true freshman is promising. He was rotating in the first few games before they decided to stick with the older players.
My hope is the new players are more reliable tacklers and more aggressive coming up against the run. Sage was fine in coverage but you never saw him flying up and blowing up a run or screen play. Gilbert is a limited player to begin with and he was playing with 1 arm.

Watch a team like Georgia with how their safeties come flying up, it’s like they’re playing a different sport with the level of physicality.

Ideally Spears would play FS and would be the deep guy when they go single high. Let Cooley play closer to the LOS. If Delaney is playing nickel then I assume we aren’t playing a Star and Perk is playing the other LB spot with Whit. Keys would be on the bench. They can’t play all these guys at the same time so that part will be interesting to see develop.

I think by the 2nd half of next year the D should be noticeably improved. The issue is playing on the road against a really good offense with a lot of continuity the first game of the season. Baker has his work cut out getting that many new players in the secondary to play fast, assignment correct D right out the gate. I’m expecting some bumps with a combination of transfers and inexperienced guys.

Kelly mentioned Toviano running with 1s. Wondering if staff set the 1s on defense as Spears and Gilbert at safety with Toviano at star. Or maybe Toviano and Spears at safety with 3 LBs in base with Keys basically replacing the star position. If they pre-determined more of a youth movement for this game and Burns relegated to 2nd team maybe he decided to move on.
This Bama dude trying to own LSU fans and get under our skin. He doesn’t realize how much this excites us to know that we’re trying to tamper and allegedly throwing out massive offers :lol:

I see this report and just think hell yea, it’s about time we play a little dirty.
I think this dude has more suddenness and wiggle than McMath, I also doubt he’s as fast as McMath in a straight line.

I could see him excelling as a power slot type of player. More in the mold of Jack Bech. Comparing any of these recruits to guys like JaMarr or Jarvis who are once in a decade types of talents is pretty wild to me.
Was gonna say, when I see a dude like this I can imagine him playing safety and bullying people. Plus he had ball skills.
Hoping he goes back to safety / star.

To backfill him at RB I’d love to see Zavion Thomas there. Think he has higher potential as a RB than receiver.
The crazy part about when Bron listens to Beethoven is he can actually guess what notes are coming before they’re even played. He actually knew the entire composition of the songs before Beethoven even tho he wasn’t born yet smdh man Bron just on another level intellectually, creatively, artistically like what can’t this man do.
He’s a brilliant football mind, wouldn’t surprise anyone if he turned into a great coach.
Here’s another thing to consider… if what has been discussed up to this point is true, then he was planning to commit to LSU, and had a nice offer from LSU. Bama upped their offer today, and now he’s leaning that way. If LSU feels they HAVE to have him, and the only reason he’s leaning Bama now is $, then LSU basically has tonight and tomorrow morning to get their $ straight, and counter with the offer he can’t refuse. If they feel it’s an absolute must, they’ll come up with the money. If they don’t, that tells you he’s not an absolute must.
I thought Saban’s rant about A&M was specifically asking his boosters to step up more, not acting like he was above it.

What was his injury?

Does he project as a Jack or more of the big DE?

Good player, will be drafted higher than people think. Versatile, fast, aggressive, around the ball.


He’s going to have a sneaky good NFL career. Aside from the versatility, he’s going to measure above 6’ and have really long arms. Having a guy who can legit backup your corners, nickel, and safeties in the NFL is so valuable.
Given this info, and what had been reported before about theft in the facility during games or practice or whenever, his choice of Boulder CO feels like less of a surprise over the other options he reportedly had. He also made a point in his first team meeting that went viral about the lack of crime there. I think he was unapologetically seeking the whitest place he could find :lol:

That entire play was virtually identical to the TD Ja’Marr Chase scored against the Chiefs last year in the regular season.

For those who attended, what was it like?
