If that is your bench mark for AVERAGE then you are living in a fantasy land. And at no point did I ever say Coman was average. Just your idea of what is considered average is out of line.
Coman was one half of 1A/1B as a sophomore. INT's are still an unreliable metric when judging DB's. For example Eugene Robinson and Everson Walls had more INT's than Deion Sanders. I don't know anyone that would say that Walls or Robinson are better than Prime Time though.

Oh I agree. INT's is not the end all be all by any stretch. Just the idea that an average SEC safety should have similar numbers to guy who is a first team all SEC or in comparing to Coman has played significantly more snaps is out of line. And while Coman was part of the shared reps, he probably only saw 30-40% of the plays and never started. Jackson started every game since his Soph year and 4 games as a Fresh

=>5 picks in a year for a DB is skrate up killin' it... 3-4 is pretty good.
also, Minkah is a CB/Star, not a S.... Eddie Jackson played CB in years 1 & 2.... moved to S last year...

That's right. Forgot Jackson started at CB. Did he miss a game his Soph coming back from the ACL? Or was he back for the start of the season?

If memory serves me correct, he was hurt as a starting CB in his SO season, so they moved him to S his JR year because of the incoming CBs...
We were fortunate he didn't leave for the NFL (along with several other cats)....
I'd heard he'd lost a step, but I've yet to see evidence of that...
edit: Wiki says he started 10 of 11 GP in '14.... so he missed some time due to his injury....

Thanks. I knew he had an injury or two. Really like his game though.

Next chance you get, ISO on #15 Ronnie Harrison, Safety... dude is the heaviest hitter we have (outside of Foster and Williams)...
Did you see him & Eddie Jackson "getting into it" on the sidelines vs USC?....

No. I didn't see that. I was back and worth that game.

So what about 4 interceptions in a 3 year span?
