Isaac Smith CB'd to LSU again... this time by Ole Miss Insider

Good stuff brother, be a nice get for the Tigers. This dude is a beast

Would be a great pickup.

He’s Kylin Jackson w/ better coverage skills- kid is a terrific football player!!

(Not meant as a slight on Kylin, b/c he is a beast as well)

We need his services. Hopefully we get his signature.

Some people think he could make a good linebacker as well

He was at the Alabama game …that game was magical lol

Toviano will be a safety not a CB

it will probably depend on who else we land …he could start out at CB out of necessity

He’s a freak played both sides of the ball last year

In your opinion…who would be the box safety and who would be the free safety ( ideally)

Kylin is a physical player and does lack some coverage skills. If the scheme is for a thumper and limited coverage I put kylin in the box.
He does well there against the run heavy teams they’ve played over his HS career. He can get caught looking in the backfield on coverage

Kylin Jackson is definitely more of a strong safety (box), but he’s so strong and athletically gifted that Matt house can slide him into an ILB’s spot to allow for more exotic blitzes and simulated pressure.

Here’s the exciting part to me: Isaac Smith is 100% built like a strong safety (very comparable to Kylin) and he plays a physical brand of ball. However, the kid is no slouch in coverage. As such, I see him being able to play free & strong safety in college. IMO, Smith would be the crown jewel of the safeties if we can sign him. I’m being dead-arse serious when I say I think he’s every bit as good as Derek Williams. He’s just so versatile - a sure tackler, Athletic enough to Cover a lot of ground quickly, good lateral mobility, can be a ball hawk, will take the head off a WR coming across the middle, willing participant in run support, and has the size of a small ILB.

Ashton Stamps is more of your pure free safety (FS), however, he has cover skills adequate for playing as a CB also.

Michael Daugherty will start out playing the nickel (N), and he will be able to grow into being a strong safety later in his collegiate career. He’s not spectacular in coverage but this kid is ferocious & fearless playing around the LOS.
