Tyran mathieu went to the alabama football camp, so Saban had an up-close & personal look at Tyran and didn't offer. He exploited the height difference in the national championship game.

Mathieu was horrible, he would've never seen the field at Bama.

OP, YOU ARE STUPID FOR EVEN CONSIDERING THE FACT THAT A GREAT POSITION GROUP AT LSU COULD EVER HAVE A WEAKNESS.

I think this is a completely reasonable question in all seriousness though. The game is changing in the NFL. Pete Carroll is starting to use bigger DBs to combat the bigger WR in the NFL and it is definitely paying off for him. Bigger corners are becoming a trend, and as with most things in football it will slowly start to trickle down into the college game. LSU has had some great DBs in the last few years and majority have been either tall or had a ridiculous wing span. The ones that didn't were incredible athletes that could make up for their lack of size. I think LSU will be okay because I do think they are trying to recruit big corners. And when the guys they recruit don't have size, it is because they have great coverage skills like TreDavious White.
