That's why I used "actually", and "just saying" in my response.
His response was that I don't watch the games, and he re-affirmed his position, with no concession to the facts.
As you and I would agree, he was an underrated corner. It's hard to be underrated and the third best corner on your team, yet be the best that LSU has ever seen.
Don't you think?
I thought it was worth mentioning that most of his accolades came from positions outside of cornerback, but judging from the sample of replies, I should have just moved on to the next thread.

I hear, clearly his impact was not as a traditional starting CB. I really think in the NFL he will be used more as FS or nickle.

I might be wrong, but I think this is referring to my post. I never said TM7 was the best LSU has ever seen. I said we've never seen another like him - not just at LSU, I mean on planet earth! But I wouldn't say he was as good as PP7. He was definitely better than Mo, though. I don't disagree with the "pure CB" comments, but who gives a shite? A CB who gives up three completions because he's too short, but rips the ball away from the poor WR on the third one, is just as valuable as the "pure CB" who defenses all three.
Compare TM7 to Mo, he gave up a few more completions, but he caused a hell of lot more turnovers. Contrary to what's been said on here, TM7 was often matched against the other team's top WR. For example: after Andre Debois beat Mo for a TD on a bomb, they tried that shite on TM7 and he ate Debois for breakfast, and we were going the other way!
