but you kept saying he's not well respected etc. Was this all from this incident? You made it seem like he wasn't popular with the players before

work ethic, since of entitlement, and stuff like this...

good examples of players who come in highly regarded and still work their asses off....R Sheppard and Ruben are 1st class examples

So I'll assume that Jai is wanted back there more than loston, better team cohesion if true

actually the coaches want loston to step up...he is a hell of an athlete and potentially a all American safety....but his lack of work ethic is hurting him...

If you know, what is the word on Jai?

Always liked jai, want him to get his playing time, if he earns it of course

Stuff like this happens all the time in spring practices... He was caught up in the heat of the moment and i kno that hes not unpopular with the team for this( i jus talked to a few players that I kno)... theres manny scuffles during the course of the practice and they mainly always stay on the field never into the lockeroom or after practice....ITS FOOTBALL....

Cooper likes smaller better cover type of safeties. the thought of moving loston to the lb spot was legit...loston poo pooed that idea real quick..Jai is doing well and the position is his to lose..but we have nobody potentially better than loston...its really up to him...

Read the whole whiny thread and already posted some real sh*t once,you go look or text another player and ask why you argue so much.

I know it was a half speed drill man,dude just was mad I guess.
You can't cast the guy to hell.

that's why i'd've thought that Jai would play that position well, he's good in coverage, and I know the future is loston, especially now that he's got his freshman season back.

All around, i feel the D will be faster, and maybe meaner

Loston's young. He's a 19 year old with like three kick-offs under his belt. Nobody fears him. Even Eric Berry wasn't "feared" coming out of the gate, he had to earn respect.
