Tweeted out that he will not be travelling to BYU.

What's going on?

He's hurt. This increases our chances of making plays on the backend

In his defense, all of the safeties have looked prettt horrible.

I didn't know he was hurt. What is his injury?

I hope he is ok right after the season is over. Every one of our seniors needs to catch the Moultrie knee until right after thanksgiving. It's time to start building for the future, and since Dan Mullen is too hard headed to realize that God will have to intervene for our youth movement to begin.

Guess that means B. Bryant will have to start. I was ready to bench him after he mailed it on the goal line last week. Probably have Bryant and McLaurin at Safeties. I'm ready to stick Peters out there at corner and let him sink or swim.

At this point, what difference does it make?

He sucks. That's our problem. Our upperclass is just low on talent.

What are the defensive responsibilities of our safeties? If it is to be 7-10 yards behind receivers as they settle and make catches in the middle of the field then our safeties are doing a hell of a job.

In most positions, I would agree with you, as we typically have low upperclassman talent backed up by even worse underclassman talent. But at safety, I think McLaurin and Bryant have the athleticism to be good, so that is one position where it might actually help for the future.

But I'm not to the point where I think wins are meaningless this season. Our next three games (and probably only our next three games) are still winnable and 5 wins still a very different feeling from 3 wins, and I don't want to enter into next season having lost seven of our last eight games.

But if we lose Friday, then we're probably going 3-9 regardless, and I'd much rather get young guys as much experience as possible, even if it ensures we go 3-9 instead of 4-8.

Two of his interceptions are results of him not being where he actually should have been on the play and getting very fortunate that a receiver dropped a ball that hit him right in the hands (Auburn) and our dline getting pressure and forcing a terrible throw (UMASS). He may be the best we have, but the season is toast and losing him won't be that big of a drop off from our younger players who need reps (and if it is a big dropoff then whooptydoo)

Amd we need 2 for next year. Bryant and McLaurin haven't been good, so our expectations were clearly wrong, but that doesnt mean that they won't improve, maybw tremendoisly improve, with reps. Maybe they only become league average by their senior seasons. At this point, I'll take it.

Why are we saying McLaurin & Bryant need reps like those 3 don't rotate pretty much every series.

Lol..He has one int this year and probably less than 5 for his career. That's terrible.

He does lead the team so far this season with 2

He still has less than 5 ints for his career of 4 years playing. For a safety that's mind blowing to me.

You holding his 2 years back up time against him? I mean we would all love for him to have a lot more. How many do you think he an average SEC safety should have in a season and over 2-3 years of starting and good back up reps?

He's played 3 solid years. He should be in the 8-10 range easily. Teams throw the ball 25 times a game.

10 career interceptions would put him like Top 50 of all SEC DB's, not just safety, since 1976. Banks is tied for 3rd with 16 career Int's. Eric Berry had 14 and is 13th. Dereck Pegus had 12. These are guys who started at least 3 years. I think you are expecting a lot for an average SEC safety.

It’s hard to judge a DB on INT’s alone because a lot of times if they’re really good people won’t throw their direction which cuts down on their INT’s. The best way I have seen and I think this is for NFL players only is to rate them play by play on how they carried out their particular assignment. +2 for a spectacular play, +1 for a good play, 0 for doing their job, -1 for a bad play, and -2 for a really bad play.

Of course, to do that you would have to have someone breaking down the film that knows football very well. It’s not something that Joe Fan could do accurately.

Just being average would get him 2-3 a year. Heck, hustling to the ball will get you picks. Similar to the pick Saturday

If your a safety it's hard to avoid you. A corner can be avoided not a safety. He's just not that good at safety. However, he's a great person

You had to say it but losing Conan does hurt. He's pretty average at best but everyone else has been horrible. McLaurin got smoked a few times Saturday.

It's honestly depressing to watch other games and consistently see tight coverage and people making plays in the ball and then watch us. We just haven't been an athletic, aggressive secondary in a while.

You do realize that 3 in a season is Top 10-15 in the SEC every year. 5-6 INT leads or is in the Top 3 every year. In fact 3 of last 4 years that wins the SEC crown in Int's. You have an inflated idea about how many a safety should have.

I agree and as you probably know I think Coman is below average at safety personally. But I am also trying to be fair to him and no doubt the scheme we play does him no favors.

So you are glad one of our players,who gives his all for the team, got injured? Maybe I'm reading this wrong?

I played safety and know exactly how the position goes. 3 interceptions a year is to be expected. Alabama's safety got 3 interceptions last week in one game. An aggressive safety will either cause turnovers or benefit from them

I'm not glad he's hurt I just see the silver lining. And who says he gives his all?

I don't care what you played. We are talking just average SEC safety. You are describing an All SEC DB including CB. The second team safety's last year for all SEC had 4. And Elston only had 1 the year before. Fitzpatrick 3 last week was the first of the year. He had 2 in 14 games last year, ironically those 2 came in one game as well. You have an over inflated idea of what an AVERAGE safety should have numbers wise.

And all of those safeties you've mentioned are aggressive and impact the games. Anddddd they almost have more interceptions in one year than Coman in his entire career. Fitzpatrick has more ints in 1 1/2 years than Comans career. Whomever the second team safety with 4 last year again totals his career. I also wish he was half the safety and impacted the games as Elston.

You were saying?
