    biggins' article said he was being recruited as a CB.

    And he has the tools to play both boundary and field corner, but has played mainly safety in high school from what I've seen. The fact that he plays the run well would make him good at boundary, but you usually want to put a slower guy like Hampton there. The fact that he can play free safety and corner means he'd also be great in the Rapp/Budda role of deep safety and nickel, which is what I alluded to in saying that Rapp will leave early for the NFL, and those types are rare.

    Either way, the fact that he's long and a rare athlete who is versatile enough to line up anywhere in our secondary should tell you what kind of prospect he is, and where they're recruiting him to play doesn't really matter, because they'll try him at multiple spots and find the right one if they can just get him in the bulding. And they really should do everything they can to get him.
    Hampton runs a 10.8 100 M. Not sure he's a "slower guy"
    Game speed might be slower. King was faster than Jones, but played the game slower than him

    Great. Put him of the fucking track team. Irvin is quicker/more sudden.

    If you are thinking ND, what does it matter how early you play when the next coach you get after Kelly gets fired decides you're not his kind of guy and you don't play at all?

    How 'bout go somewhere you know the coach ain't going to get FIRED. So that rules out ND, UCLA, USC, ASU, Arizona, etc. SHOULD rule out Stanford, but when fewer people care about the football team than listen to the TSIO podcast, why bother firing the coach?

    Truer words have never been spoken

    I hope he enjoyed watching a good defense in a losing effort
