CB dont worry me. Rumph has showed me he can develop kids. NO ONE thought MJ was going to be this good.we are young at the position but by next year we should be very good.

Why does this keeps being stated. I praised MJ the whole time he was here considering he earned all special teams reps and stole a few play time reps from his freshman year. Kid came in at 6'2 190 and running sub 4.6 40...umm you better work with those type numbers.

Always watch the freshmans that perform on all special teams..(Homer, Michael Jackson, Sean Taylor, Walton, Kellen Winslow)

Some of our fans just dont really know football like that...especially the ones that had MJ as some bum or transfer candidate.

It was because he was from Alabama and didn't go to Bama..Maybe didn't have an offer from Bama...so people thought we were getting leftovers.

I'll take it.

Yea Bama messed up. He performed as one of the better dbs in the bama all star game with their better players.
I love heading to sec country and grabbing some players back..

Lol yeah sure. MJ didn’t show anything that would suggest he would be anywhere near the convo of a potential 1st round pick (or simply making the NFL) until he came out of nowhere during the summer right before the start of last season.

He definitely wasn’t a bum but he barely got on the field as a cb his first two seasons. Most players that are viewed 1st round talents or even above average contributors (on their cfb team) are getting playing time immediately (even if it’s in spurts), and the cornerback position wasn’t full of all world talent at the time he got here.

To make a comparison, freshman year MJ wasn’t close to the same level as Blades, Frierson, and Ivey. How great of a job that Rumph did in developing him isn’t being overly stated like you’re trying to imply.

Ummm..yea sure. He played behind 3 nfl players. Again he occasionally got reps early on..just because you didnt notice is different. I dont think Jackson was an early entry but physically and athletically he was on par with the 3 named. Thats what im saying he wasnt some bum that Rumph resurrected...he was a kid that came in with alot of talent and developed like most players do after their sophomore years. We're spoiled with having guys showout as true freshmans. Where they usually show out is on specials...and Mike Jackson was on ALL specials since he step foot here.
 
Agreed.

Sheven Marshall, an LB during the Butch years also had a neck injury that ended his career early - maybe in his sophomore year.

He looked like he was going to be a good one for us - much like Malek.

Tracks the ball well. Covers ground quickly. Little guy that plays big. Not afraid to get dirty. I like this kid.
