Whoever lines up opposite him in a Bama jersey is definitely going to be a POS. Also, Hugh Freeze.

Agree about White and Divinity at ILB. Both are big, strong and athletic. They would be together for at least the next two years at ILB.
I think D Alexander is going to be that smaller 'D. Riley' type ILB, and rotate to spell the other two....hope he can produce like Duke did...or just come close.
Key of course will be at DE/OLB with Sci Martin and I. Washington. C Thompson will be that other OLB, and with his former S cover skills he will match-up well vs TEs/RBs and running qb's. I see him being a bigger Dwayne Thompson type defender, but obviously won't match up with WRs. Lot of tools in the tool box for Aranda!

Corey Thompson is going to kill it as OLB in Aranda's scheme if he comes back full speed. He's pretty perfect for the position.

Dwayne Thomas.
And Corey is an ex safety, he can definitely still cover WR's in the short and intermediate. He's a fantastic athlete with great length/range.

This thread makes me feel much better. Forgot about some of these guys i.e Washington,Thompson, Thorton & others.
Maybe we are not in such bad shape recruiting LBs.

No LSU played a LOT of 4-2 nickle. Key was the fourth Dlineman. Sometimes it was a 3-3 nickle with Key standing up.

No doubt, but he is either made of glass or really unlucky. Hope he has a great season but there better be a plan B

Alexander really came along late in the season.
