just want to know how bad we are going to miss janzen.
Is there anybody on our def that can cover half as good as peterson?

No, Peterson was in another class. He was a better prospect than Jai or Hawkins though IMO

Peterson is way better than Janzen and it's not even close. I don't miss Janzen at all to tell the truth.

Outside of the two big plays the big one on 3rd down on the opening drive(I didn't see the first 52 yard play) and the long 40+ yard pass right before half time, our DBs kept everything in front of them and basically made the tackles right away. Peterson just played with more intensity and Hawkins played horribly. On the one right before half, Jai was in position and just misplayed the ball, so I am not too worried.
There was pressure, but not as much as was hoped early on. Claiborne, Brooks, Taylor are all as good or better potentially than Jackson. Jackson isn't even playing corner anymore at UTenn. He's playing safety and I believe only LSU wanted him at CB, which is partly why he didn't want to come here.
I think LSU will be just fine and has as talented or better corners on the team right now. We'll be fine.
As for Cooper's DB coaching, technique and solid play can't fix a flawed scheme. Overall they played well given the scheme.

Janzen was going to be a project at CB because he was sort of a S/CB tweener (played safety in high school and was going to be asked to convert). Patrick Peterson was being touted as the best cover corner to come out of high school in 10 years. The answer is easily Peterson (or Patterson).
