re: Is Tre White considered elite?

IMO, yes.

He's a very complete CB and really doesn't have a weakness. He's always in great position on his man and rarely makes a mental mistake or gets beat. Hes a very good open field tackler and is a smart player with a high football IQ. He's very smooth in and out of his breaks and is very instinctive when it comes to reading the WR or QB. He's rock solid all around.

He's not a flashy player, which is why he's not a household name, but he's an "eraser" type of CB. The QB rarely looks his way or throws in his area because he usually is in a great position to play the ball or cause an incompletion. Ole Miss went after him some and he shut down Moncrief. When Cooper was on his side, Alabama went away from him.

He's been our best CB since he was a true freshman. That's impressive.
