Depth. Will lessen the sting of losing Vito to injury.

That checkerboard look rocks. Welcome to the BBN

He's got toughness but he needs to take the coaching fast. His tackling was horrible. Good ball instincts though.

I hope he has an immediate impact but for some reason I think he’s going to need a year to adapt to the SEC.

I'm not seeing how Childress struggles tackling... He had 74 tackles last year and 61 his FR season. That's pretty good. 135 total tackles and 76 solo tackles. It sounds like when he gets taught better technique here, he'll have all our tackles this year. But, I haven't watched any of his film from Texas St because its hard to find any without having to watch full games.

If a safety has all our tackles, our defense is in a world of hurt.

I know, that was a joke.

This was a short highlight video. It doesn't show him lowering his head on tackles as bad as the longer video I watched. But he lowers his head bad on several tackles. I was worried for his neck on a few tackles on the longer video.

He does show a tendency to dive for the legs as opposed to wrapping up. He's basically taking their legs out from under them.

That’s the way I did it back on HS as a light weight DPlayer. It works. Nobody likes someone going low so I actually was an intimidator! Better get down.

Otherwise I would have had a fx neck.

Way I did it too. No matter the size, cutting people a fun way to play.
