Simon - Sounds like “DBU” has a new major tenant

DBU - Simon
That Tharold Simon led the LSU football team with 10 pass deflections last season would appear to be a testament to his playing ability.
Simon says the stat is a mark of frustration, not pride.
“Most of those pass deflections should have been interceptions,” Simon said. “I’m not at all (satisfied). I have to come down with those.”
To turn PBUs into INTs on the stat sheet, Simon has spent the offseason trying to remodel himself into a better player. A Tharold Simon 2.0, if you will.

It started at cornerback way back with Corey Webster, a second-round pick in the 2005 NFL draft by the New York Giants. There were also safeties like LaRon Landry, a first-round pick by the Redskins in 2007, and All-American Craig Steltz, who’s entering his fifth season with the Chicago Bears.
Then there was Patrick Peterson, who won the Jim Thorpe Award in 2010 and was the fifth overall pick of the 2011 NFL draft by the Arizona Cardinals. It continued in 2011 as Morris Claiborne also picked up a Thorpe Award on his way out the door to becoming the No. 6 overall pick of this year’s draft by the Dallas Cowboys
no Jack Hunt?

Simon is literally the player I'm most excited to see on the D side in a few weeks. You know what your getting from Mathieu, Sam, and Mingo(All-SEC, All-American Ballers), but Simon could seriously become a more dominant corner than Claiborne. At 6'2" 190 something, his size and speed are elite for a corner. If he could learn to catch like Claiborne, he could lead the SEC and potential top 5 in the country in INTs. He already blankets receivers when he's in man and now he's training on being a shutdown corner taking down one side of the field.
To watch these young DBs from the past few years, grow and become so damn dominant has been one of my most favorite things to see. I hope they can pass the torch like this for years to come.

I feel the same way. It's obvious that he has recognized where he needs to improve and I, like yourself, think he is going to follow suit ie; PP7 and MC.
