CJ Henderson was made to look foolish a few times as a true freshman, too. Still wish he were playing for us and not Florida. Campbell may have been#3 here last year, Stevenson may have been #3 or #4 for us this year. But there is no doubt that, like Henderson, they would have started for us a couple of years and improved our overall defense.
I'm not a "sky is falling" guy. Our DBs have been very good if not great, and I don't think our W/L record would have been much different if we had gotten those 3 DBs vs. the DBs we've fielded the past couple of years. But every now and then an elite kid takes over the game, makes a play that no one else can. Or they prevent an equivalent talent on the opponent's team from doing so. We need more of those kids on our team to go from Coastal contender to national contender..
