With all our DB problems I've seen no mention of Ryan Mayes. Is he that bad?

I wonder how Dortch and Hope would've panned out.

LHope just wasn't good. He did himself a disservice by coming here and Al should have never given him an offer. Saban couldn't have turned that guy into an average player.
The light never came on for Dortch. He had the natural DB skills except for elite speed. We all just liked him because Butch offered him while he was at UNC.
As for RMayes, he had one of those "Once he goes to a big time program he will blow up" reps out of HS when he transferred from Dr.Krop to MNW. Well....He didn't blow up. I wasn't a fan of the take. He looks the part but just didn't really make any plays while at MNW. Worse comes to worse, he can be a safety here I guess.
Questionable offer to begin with.
He's 6'1" though, and went to MNW, so he must be good.

Thing is he wasnt really a NW kid.....He aint from the CITY...he was a dr. krop kid......and Uncle Luke and other coaches at MNW basically called him "soft" when he transferred in their for his sr year.
He had the measurables...and he went to Al Golden's camp and i guess looked good witht he pads off....Same camp Quincy Wilson was at.....I think Mayes might end up being a solid cb...but he basically took Wilson's offer...and was nowhere near the level opf player as Quincy Wilson. Which in turn bit us in the *** as we lost out on some kids, and Wilson looked like a solid cb for UF.
How ya boi out at UCLA DOING....i got a game and he looked okay....you can sell these guys on definate talent but who knows with our defensive evals...EVERY year we offer duds from Golden's camp only to slow play them at the end and show them the door.
