He's a freshman Sammich. Everyone pretty much knew Patrick Peterson would be a star at LSU as a freshman. I don't think Bama fans said the same thing about Dre Kirkpatrick. Just give him time, he will be pretty beastly.

#1 ranked CB on Rivals & #5 on Scout. Signed with Bama. Played in 11 games & 3 solo tackles? Guess he was underutilized. The opposite of Patrick Peterson, the #1 CB on Rivals the year before?

Injuries played a pretty big part in Dre's season. He also had Javy and Kareem in front of him.

I would imagine that he'll have the second corner spot next year.

that's what it was. Saban prefers upperclassman as do all coaches. there is an old saying that coaches say aboout Freshman getting you beat. The flute players don't understand that fact.
