I like in his highlights that he is very patient and THEN he explodes and just levels people....he never seems to overpursue which is rare for a young player with his speed. Patience and aggression is what we need in a LB. Even with his speed and hitting power 210lbs is tiny for an SEC LB....how do you stop a guy like Kenny Hillard with 210lb LBers?

How many Kenny Hilliards to you see walking around?

Also LSU has a not so secret weapon called Tommy Mofit

I think Tahj, our starter, may be smaller, but plays well. This kid plays with control, and speed, and I don't see his size being much of a problem.

Tahj Jones is essentially the same weight and is likely to start and/or play alot this Fall.

Unlike Tahj, I think it is likely that Debo will be putting on weight as do most players once they get into Moffit's program...

Get under his pads. It's simple. Hilliard gets tackled by 190 lb DBs all the time. Very few tackles are made toe-to-toe. Most involve different levels or side angles.
