No offense -- but if this personal eval doesn't include laser timers, it's not meaning much. Slay was the FASTEST DB that came out for the draft in ALL of college football last year. Jamerson may be that fast or faster, but he's going to have to prove it to me on a laser timer at the combine before I will ever concede that point. It's not impossible, but it's highly improbable that we actually had the 2 fastest DBs in the country playing together in nickel last year...

How much does Townsend coaching upgrade our DBs?

No doubt that Melvin Smith in his prime was a very good DB coach. Seemed to sort of be on the downhill slide although technically he's only like 54 or 55 years old. Lots of age on that Auburn D staff with Ellis Johnson at 62 as well.

Melvin was asleep at the wheel the last few years, but I hope people remember him for what he did at State during his prime.

Lasers, no stopwatch. 4.2s.

Absolutely. Melvin did a lot to build what MSU fans have come to expect from our defense. More often than not we have a great defense. Even Croom had some great defenses (who stats are skewed by the offense's inability to accomplish anything). Of course Sherill did too. Melvin played a big role in the defensive tradition here.

Haha. K.
And where were you able to do this laser timing?

I just don't see how this is possible. Slay was damn fast. I like Love, but you think he runs a sub 4.36?
Name the amount, and I will bet you that Jamerson doesn't run lower than 4.36 at the combine, assuming he gets invited.

So, 4.2 flat then -- since lasers will tell us exact times -- not within 1/10 of a second.
That would make him the fastest player in the laser-timed history of the nfl combine. Chris Johnson ran a 4.24 for the current record. Seems like a big stretch...
