no doubt...stop yanking this kids chain and let him play at his natural position. I get that he is a play maker but damn.


newsflash: when a player is moving around in search of a position, usually means they aren't that good.

...more likely it means he has some development to do (perhaps unexpected) and they were trying to appease him rather than sitting him on the bench behind other freshman by putting him in a position that allowed him to play. Obviously, that also isn't working...so it's back to square 1 and develop over time at his natural position.

no in this case it means there are other guys ahead of him and he's a stud athlete and it's a waste to let him sit on a bench

he's a true freshman, not a 3rd/4th year player

Maybe O will follow suit and switch back to D-line coach

other freshmen ahead of him.

Probably the 3rd best freshman safety on the roster.

Yet we were putting big time, or at least decent, WR talent into the NFL. We actually put 2 TEs in the NFL, though neither has any NFL stats to show for it .

WR Craig Davis
WR Dwayne Bowe
WR Early Doucet
WR Brandon LaFell
WR Trindon Holliday
WR Rueben Randle
WR Russell Shepard
WR James Wright
WR Jarvis Landry
WR Odell Beckham

TE Keith Zinger
TE Deangelo Peterson

Says a lot about the wr depth on this squad that he thought he'd be able to get PT. Worst group of WRs in over 20 years. Can thank Cameron and miles for that.

That's because the recruiting services are out to trick Orgeron.

If the team were winning, I wouldn't give this a second thought. But with the shape the team and the program is in, it's one more sign that O has absolutely no control over this program--no more than he had at Ole Miss.

Could you imagine Saban moving a player simply because "it's better for his career"?

He’s letting the players dictate.

It is better for his career and he should have never been moved to begin with.

This has been a catastrophe of a hire.

It’s abdoluteky digesting how O is “running” things.

While you're at it, move Caleb Roddy back to his natural position. Kid is a DE
