I would have gone with Emery, but maybe he doesn't get the majority of the carries or something. A lot of opportunities for people to breakthrough and a lot of talent that could do it on this team. Should be a fun year.

He looked pretty good when he had to replace Delpit against Arkansas
He's an athlete and you saw glimpses on baseball field as well

The defensive back talent is insane this year. Position battles will be interesting. Flott/Ricks and Harris/Hampton will be the battles that are most interesting to me.

quote:

Maurice Hampton arrived in Baton Rouge in 2019 as a Top 150 recruit. Hampton has good size at 6’0? 214 lbs and is a strong defensive back. He was able to pick up two starts in 2019 but was primarily a backup for the Tigers. He did manage 10 tackles and 1 PBU in limited time this past season. Hampton has the ability to cover receivers if needed but excels at safety because of his excellent range. He has good ball skills and will compete for the football in contested situations. There is some scheme versatility to his game as he can do many things at the safety position and possibly play some corner in a pinch. With some playing time under his belt, Hampton should be ready to take on a larger role this season.

I agree with this. DBU elite safety star replacing Delpit.

Racey is going to be our real breakthrough this year. Can’t wait. Our team is reloaded across the board though and that’s the best feeling.
