since several have asked the question, i suppose we could start the debate by asking a few more. like asking coleman what its like to get your ankles broken in the open field by a tailback and fall flat on your ass in front of the coaching staff? or, we could ask russell what its like to throw a shoulder into purdues te and watch him bounce off, run for a first down, then an additional 10 yards. or we could ask jenkins what our best lock down corner is doing playing safety. oh, its a "scheme" thing... probably thought up by the same people who felt ginn should be moved to cb because a lockdown cb is more valueable than anyone else on the field.
i don't generally watch the safetys that close. but i have the games taped and have little doubt i could go back and find tons of errors made. im more than happy to consceed they are primarily mental mistakes. but that doesn't change the situation. right now we are weak at safety. you don't stick your best cover corner back there if your not. we don't have much in the way of experience so we are slanting our strength to protect our weakness. but lets at least call it like it is.
at the end of the year i think this will be a legit debate. by this time next year it will probably be a very interesting one. but not now, not yet. they are far too green to be compaired with two of the better safties to come out of tOSU.
