Is the portal hot for corners with 45 career games and 0 career interceptions?
Well, shitt. He made some mistakes this year, but you could see his upside potential.
Okay, Lebby and... new defensive coordinator guy... get to work. I love all these receivers, but let's not go just totally ole miss on this thing.

hope he isn't relying on his film from his time at MSU as a selling tool for his services. Both corners had zero INTs this year, and got burned EVERY time they went man
Well, we just pulled in a DL transfer who has 7 total tackles in 2 seasons at North Carolina. I think we're going to have to win a lot of 45-42 games going forward if we want to be successful.
Don't forget zero sacks!
Oh, but he's a former top 150 croot from the 2020 class, so he must have monster potential, right?**
Well he started over someone. Id rather have him than that someone. But I think this is a glimpse of why we were more willing to hire Arnett last year. Schools now put their entire roster at risk with a total turnover. Glad we made a move and hired Lebby but this is part of the cost.
He sure didn't progress from last season. I would almost call him a liability this season. Coming from someone that picked him as My Boy '24
He looked like the second coming of Odell Bradley this year. Being a cornerback and being one of your team's leading tacklers is rarely the sign of a good defense.
If this is Lebby's plan, he's going to fail.
Both Mullen and Leach, who obviously were considered offensive gurus, recognized that defense was the key ingredient at MSU.
He had an NFL first rounder to help him in 2022. He's not bad, at all. Especially considering most the defensive problem this past year was due to coaching. Of course, he's another that theoretically should be out of eligibility.
It’s hard to judge some of the individual performances this year given the absolutely horrible coaching and team morale.
Again, at this point the staff is just getting players on the roster of any kind. Theyre going to have to take some risks to fill it for next season.
Assuming we didn't have to pay much for him, this is a risk worth taking. Could still turn out to be a solid player. But what I'm seeing so far from Lebby is a LOT more emphasis on recruiting good offensive skill position players than linemen or defensive players. It's still very early though. But we need a lot of help all across the board.
He probably will have to try and do that next year unfortunately. Defense looks quite scary.
