You are correct. The 21 solo tackles by Minter was in his first year starting in 2011. That's the apples to apples- Minter's great 2012 season that everyone remembers was when he was playing fast and knew the defense really well. When people say that 80 tackles by a MLB is piss poor or that 25 solo tackles must be the lowest total in LSU history, they have short memories. Minter's 21 solos in 2011 was just a few years ago. Many here wanted Chief to find another MLB when Minter was just getting it together in 2011. Glad he stuck with the guy he believed in.

I don't hate 31 - I just wish he would attack the play and make tackles at the LOS instead of 4 yards downfield. He seems to either be slow in diagnosing which lane to take or easily knocked out of position. My recollection is that the vast majority of his tackles were 4-6 yards downfield from the LOS.
