| Based off the last two years, it's really tough to say Lanier is better than Gordon. I do believe it is possible that Lanier developed himself more this Spring, but just comparing the two off previous games: they're about equal. | |

| its a position in Nick Saban's defense.
Hibachi Arenas played it and Menzie played it last season.
they both played it completely differently because of their strengths/weaknesses. | |

| For me it's not that we lost a great player b/c I don't think Lanier was a great talen, I actually think Bonner & Coleman are more talented. It's just that we lost a guy w/ quality SEC experience & it hurts our depth.
Coleman is very talented but we saw last year how hard it is for a freshmen to come in & be good as a DB. | |
