He doesn't play in the SEC or B1G therefore he can't be that good no matter what the pro scouts say. He also plays for Prime who doesn't kiss the media from behind and he plays both ways which is "different" and many of these self-appointed experts can't handle different.
And honestly while he made some spectacular plays last year he gave up some plays as well. He is still learning how to be a CB. As
@CitizenKane said he should be 1st team by the end of the year and that is what matters. Prime will help him clean up the things he got beat on and our much improved DL will force offenses to give him opportunities to make a lot of highlights.
