You do realize that Marlin Jackson is playing great football for the Colts this season and that he is the best corner on that team right? Jackson intercepting Tom Brady last season in the final seconds of the AFC Championship sealed the game and prevented the Patriots from having yet another come from behind victory. Jackson is among the best corners in the NFL.

Marlin has done well for himself in the NFL, as well as many UM defenders (some who were pretty mediocre in AA). Jackson vs Holmes (03 & 04) & Hall's final two games are lasting memories on an OSU board.

Bottom line is that OSW is absolutely correct. This idea of "SEC speed" is such a crock. Ohio State and Michigan are two of the fastest teams in the nation. If you think otherwise you are a dolt. (OK, so I called half the pundits in sports journalism "dolts;" so what?)
If you want to argue that Mississippi State is faster than Iowa I might buy your argument, but on the other hand who gives a [censored]?

Leon Hall has 60 tackles, 4 INT's, and 12 passes defensed as a rookie. He's had his ups and downs, but then again he's only a rookie and his front 7 is among the worst in the NFL. Hall is a solid corner as a rookie, and within 3 seasons he'll be one of the better ones in the NFL.

My bad, last I saw both of them in the [censored] and blue they were getting abused. I don't really follow scUMers after that.

In the games I've seen, I have not been impressed with Leon Hall. That being said, I have been unable to watch the last several games, so perhaps he is playing better now than earlier in the season.
I won't be holding my breath for him to become one of the best in the league.

You are right, I've watched him as well and regardless of stats he isn't very good. I don't know a single Bengals fan that was happy when they drafted him or happy with him now.
I just don't feel like arguing with the troll this morning. If you've noticed his posts anyone who doesn't agree with his scUM slant is an idiot or misinformed. He's even arrogant enough to presume to tell us a player will be one of the best in the NFL in 3 years like its fact.
Typical scUM arrogance, if not for the BKB angle he'd have been banned by now.

At least, he isn't wearing prison stripes. That's a positive.
