21 MPH at 260 pounds is ridiculous. I believe Reliford ran track in HS.

6'2 260 hitting 21 should be illegal

You can't keep that kind of size and speed off the field. He will be playing next season.

Anyone hear what our base defense will be?

3 Star on ESPN. Even more evidence of how terrible their recruiting ranks are.

Build and speed reminds me of Sam Montgomery. A true DE, not an Edge/LB hybrid/tweener.

It translates on the field too. He made some plays last year that were pretty amazing.

Baker ran a base 4-2-5 at Mizzou, with one of the 5 DBs playing in the box to support the run. You may be more familiar with Bama applying this same approach with their "Star" position.

What Trindon Holliday could have been.

Yeah, I said weeks ago he would be one of my 50 5*. Go to his HUDL highlights linked below (2:40 mark) and watch him chase down a RB from behind with no angle. Hell, he evens runs past 3 of his own players in catching the guy. He also is strong to boot. His recruiting service rating should be a crime! He is just one example of why the services are completely out of touch!

Imagine someone getting hit by that on a kickoff return.

Jeepers that’s like 1,100 newtons of force.

If he works hard and is even remotely coachable, he is going to be a jillionaire in 3 or 4 years.

Combine this with Perkins being properly used and "Coached Up" on scheme/assignment with Weeks holding down the Middle and making on-field calls/adjustments.

The timing of the Jimbo firing and A&M unable to retain Robinson worked out great for LSU.

Flips by Reliford, McKinley, Echols, Davis. Bussey still pending.
