And, unless we’re trying to preserve a red shirt (which I don’t think we are), I would love to be in a position in the 2nd half to see Grant Stuard at OLB. I’m really excited to see what this kid can do.
Does anyone know what the deal is with Dixie Wooten? I really expected him to be on the 2 deep this year.
I don’t know what the official 2 deep was for last week, but Johnson is also CB1 this week. Was Johnson playing for Winchester, or on the other side? I was really hoping to see vast improvement from Winchester this year. There’s still time I suppose.
I am not sure. They were trying to pick on Johnson, he was decent considering it is his first real game minutes at position. Being a 6’3" CB that has recovery speed can do that.
Winchester and Myres started against Arizona, but Johnson and Winchester saw the most plays. Myres was in there quite a bit as well and Arizona tended to only attack Johnson out of those 3. Basically, we have 3 CBs that rotate often.
As far as Wooten, unless a guy is a stud OL out of high school, most really won’t play until they become a junior/senior. Most need to build strength and technique for 2-3 years before being effective.
