Kevin Tolliver does not impress so far

He is in the hip pocket just poor techique.....

Teachable but I know Savion, Fulton and company are itching to get a shot at that spot.

Also, Donte must have been in doghouse 1st half.

Victims of the moment.

I've noticed it all year. Good position until the ball is in the air.

DT13 needs to be replaced by a frosh that understands the scheme

I thought the same. His main issue is not turning and finding the ball. I think this is the most difficult skill to develop for a DB. But it takes experience and confidence. He has the speed and natural skill to do this, he just needs to learn to run with his head on a swivel. He's on his guy every time, just isn't anticipating and reacting to the ball when it gets there.

I think he just has to get that head turned around quicker. He'd have 2 picks in that msu game if he had done that. I'm not concerned about kt2, it's donte Jackson in a little concerned about. He takes bad angles alot. All this is coachable tho.

hard to look for the ball when you never turn your head around. This is easily coachable. When the WR's eyes look up for the ball, turn your head and look for it too. There were at least 3 back shoulder throws that he could have easily picked off had he just turned his head around.

That sounds easy but is a helluva lot harder to do when you are running full speed to catch up to the recorder.

As he continues to become more familiar and comfortable with route recognition, he will be able to take the next step and locate the ball.

Look, he is only a Sophmore...still 2.5 years left in his development.

The few errors he had will be corrected in practice. He just needs to turn and look for the ball. He had great coverage all game long. If he would have turned around he could have intercepted at least two passes. I hope the opposing teams try to go after Tolliver because he will make them pay.

Well, if it takes time to learn it, it seems like we might need to give some other guys a shot until he learns. We're going to be playing teams who will start to exploit him soon. He is our weak link in the secondary, in my opinion.

I thought this kid was going to be a lock down corner.

There is no such thing as a lock down corner short of Patrick Peterson - and no, KT was NOT supposed to be PP7.

I though Paris looked better. Still gave up completions, but the receivers just made good plays.

It was the exact same situation with KT; he had good coverage, but a great player made great plays.
I'm not at all worried. KT looked good to me. So did Paris in brief action. We're not playing the Washington Generals. The other team has players too.
