The talk awhile bacj was that if we took gage then Voorhies may become a WR. But if we really like Voorhies at Safety, which I know we do, then maybe we red shirt Gage at the safety position and only bring in Toliver next class at the S position.

I remember that - and that is possible - I guess it depends on how the WR class turns out. For that matter, if Adoree comes, that is a corner, possible return man and a few offensive snaps - but it frees up Paris to play safety - if necessary.

But, I like Paris at corner, too, and he should get the first look there.

Gage isn't a reach, but nothing leaps out that says "he would be a good nickel" or even "his natural position is safety"(although that may be true) - he's just a good, all around football player with average size to play a skill position in the SEC - I'm not dismissing him (and I said he isn't a reach), but I suspect he will have to make a place for himself, rather than fitting neatly into one.
