We had a great season--not perfect, but great. I don't care if we win by 1 point or 35 points. A win is a win and that is all that counts. When it was 3rd and 1 and Tebow ran it for 1 1/2 were you same guys pissed because he didn't pick up 5? Come on!

Very good point.

Honestly first game all season I thought our corners for exposed and we did a good job of pressuring TB

The receiversade nice plays and he made great throws ....to me a huge key to the loss

It's just positive reinforcement..........for us to ponder. All the rest is gravy.

Well vh3 will definitely see plenty of pt this year. Special teams and giving breathers. He should be a very good back up. I feel he may even surprise some people on here just how much pt he may see. With his dad being a coach, I am sure he has a high football iq

Marcus Roberson
Loucheiz Purifoy
Jaylen Watkins
Cody Riggs
Vernon Hargreaves III

I say whoever has played the most nickel between Watkins and Purifoy moves to one of the safety spots. Then VHIII and Riggs see time at corner and nickel. The coaches were also high on Brian Poole's bowl preparation. A lot of talent in this secondary.

If not start, then alternate start.

This was a very strong defensive backfield during this season.

Quinn mentioned how good Poole has looked at least a couple of times in media conferences leading up to the bowl game. Sounds like a future contributor if not a star. Muschamp and Robinson can identify talent and coach 'em up. "Fans" that are critical of our corners because of the Louisville game aren't very astute.

Think he can start, and purifoy, moves to WR fulltime if some WR don't pan out for us. He's the real deal as good as jenkins was as a freshman allready.Also alexander is a player who could push for time if we land him

AZ jumps on me every time I suggest Purifoy move to SS, but he knows more about player personnel on this team than I do, so I suspect Watkins is the more likely suspect. Nice size and speed combo for either safety spot. Showers might be ready to take over the other spot. Don't know where Poole ends up. He's another highly versatile defender, but I loved his high school clips at corner. No idea where Ledbetter and Maye are development wise.

Forgot that this is a recruiting thread. I guess I should say something about VH3. He's special, plus I like the numeral in his name. I'm a 3rd as well.

No way our best cb in 2013 moves to WR, imo. If SOS or Urban were HC, maybe. No way with CWM.

I think Roberson will be our best cover corner in 2013. Purifoy is a better playmaker, but we heard his name more than Roberson's this year. The less you hear a cornerback's name, the better.
