Donte is pretty damn good most of the time, but is prone to have a breakdown every now and then and finds himself out of position.

Greedy looked good in game 1. Great to see. Hopefully he keeps developing and gets better. It's not out of the question that you see young guys come in and start playing their way into more pt.

I will say that halfway through the game I had to look to see if donte was one of the suspended players since I didn't really see any passes to his way (the hair gave him away once I looked for him). In a game where all byu really did was try to pass he never got burned, though I can't say for sure how many if any passes were allowed to his man.

As I've said before and many will disagree, it seems Donte takes poor angles to avoid contact. He doesn't have the same mentality as the DBs we've seen at LSU in the past. There's a reason we haven't seen his world-class speed in many blitz-packages.

The way I look at it...we now have depth at that spot for whenever Donte needs a break....

remember Donte's awesome pick against Ole Miss last year at the goal line....it was very similar to Greedy's pick....

This is why the rant is hard to read, Donte is the best corner on the team.

Pretty poor question whether its the rant or not. Certainly you can give credit to Williams without taking a shot at one of the other players.
So what is it? Arranda and O dont know what theyre doing or is Jackson just better?

Or maybe you think Williams will continue to develop this season and get a starting spot? Dont know why you think this based on the one game against that passing attack. Could the wide receiver for BYU played that interception any worse?
Anyone can say the 2nd teamer might compete for the starting job on almost any position on the team.... Whats the point in this? To question the coaches? After a shutout?

I like Greedy and obviously he is a potential NFL player in his own right.
But these discussions about dissing another amateur athlete are useless.

You should get many downvotes.

Although I think Donte would be awesome at nickel, you have to give him credit. He doesn't get into trouble and he stays healthy for the most part. Unlike KT2, who I thought would be the next Peterson, he can't stay healthy or from suspension to play enough. I like Donte on the outside too though. I also think Corey Raymond knows who the best corner for the job is too.
