If ever there was a "I know what Coach wants" player of middling skills that did his job, he was it. Maybe we will catch lightning in the bottle again with Jace Christmann.
It's almost as though Mullen looked in the crystal ball and knew he was losing one speedy slightly built cb who may have tackling issues and went out and got a like kind replacement. I hope Blades will surprise me by bringing some physicality and tackling ability.
I wonder if a guy who sat out last year and needs to make a name for himself for himself just says screw it and lays it all on the line in the physicality category compared to some at the position who make a business decision their last year to not get hurt. Could be getting a highly motivated player
