    Pete really hates CB's

    Is he the 4th or 5th one he has kicked off?

    Enewally, Darien Washington, Peters, Kelly, and now Hale.
    Darien left before Peterman got here, Kelly quit on his own. The other three were told to LEAVE!

    Too bad, was interested to see how he would develop with another year under Lake. Just another recruiting gem that left before living up to the hype and serves as a reminder to all the extreme TBSers to stop freaking out when a 4-5 star doesn't go our way.

    Sydney Jones ftw. Gardenhire, we'll see. King is long and athletic and might be able to hide his biggest weakness (physicality) on the outside. LIPO.

    I know you're being sarcastic, but he's killed the last 2 "combines"

    Whoops, how did I do that? I meant Lavon Washington.

    Too many Washingtons on Washington.

    Maybe i'm being wooshed, but he's arguably one of the best pure athletes on the team. He just does not have the headhunter mindset needed to play Strong Safety, which is why tiny Budda was leading the charge. He was never going to be a feared hitter in D1 and it was clear he was hesitant/scared whenever size was running down the seam.

    He does have the length, quickness, and range that could make him a nightmare defending smaller guys in the slot (which there are a ton of in the Pac-12). With him it remains to be seen if he has it in him to be a football player or just an athletic guy who never got it. He's athletic enough to give it a chance.
    This is why I was hoping for the Brostek redshirt this year. He played CB in high school and just didn't look like he knew how to play safety last year, nor did he have the body for it. Despite his long ass neck, he has the athleticism to be a good CB with the proper teaching

    I think the nature of the position requires Petersen to go outside of OKG to find guys. There arent too many good, mild mannered CB's.
