Not more than one player away. Did you really expect a secondary with a guy who switched from WR to DB a month before season, and a redshirt freshman in Gordon along with Evans to be good at beginning of season? Teague and Gordon are very good yet were very inexperienced this year. Give them another year in weight room and another year of coaching and them two become very good as they have show glimpses of. Add that with Prentiss Waggner who shut down Alshon Jeffrey outside of one pass, and you have 3 very good SEC DBs. Then add Moore with that and you have 4 very good SEC DBs with very good safeties behind them. People just want to ignore that vast improvements are going to be for young players.
oliver, loften, martin, randolph, and coleman wont hurt either...
yes we are.
Dont be fooled by what some poor passing teams werent able to accomplish vs us in the last 5 games.
Bama, USC, UF even UAB Lit us up thru the air.
we are definitely more than one player away. we have no experienced depth at CB. Prewaggs had some nice moments but he is very replaceable. emphasis on very.
I wouldn't expect to much out of Coleman as a freshman, Randolph could make and impact and if Loften gets in I'd expect him to make somewhat of an impact. However you can never rely on a freshman db in the SEC. And I'm not going to have high expectations for Oliver or Martin, you never know how they will come back from their injuries, they could come back and play great or it could hurt their game never know.
Exactly, they seemed to have pretty descent coverage but could always be better of course, they seemed to get to the ball very quick, its the poor tackling that got to me. They just through their bodies at people, they need to make more sure tackles.Dont be fooled if you dont get any pressure on the qb 4 ronnies lotts will lose coverage at some point.
true, but id love some depth and the makings of a rotation. it will also help our d a great deal if our o can stay on the field for more than 3 plays at a time
