To paraphrase Jess, there are two types of corners: those that have been beaten, and those that will be beaten. Ease up on the guy,or walk on and take his scholly from him.

cool, man. if you think i was harsh, i'm thinking you didn't read my post. also, irrelevant to what i said, but getting beat on a play usually isn't a mental error.

no, pretty sure he was the safety man on the coverage, and got sucked in, although, i haven't seen a replay. he didn't just get beat, he never should have been in a position to let somebody outrun him. it was a mental error, just like a blown coverage in the secondary would've been.

Theoretically your kicker is always the man of last resort, but instead of hanging back Cade runs up to make tackles, sometimes good, sometimes not so much. What I was getting at was the error on the kick return isnt exactly applicable to one player when the rest of the team failed to do their job as well, Not to mention that was the ugliest kick ive ever seen, it spiraled sideways and landed at the 15 or so.

That being said a mental mistake on ST doesnt detract from Fulton as a corner, as a cover corner he may be better than Milliner, at least he was last year. As a tackler, also remembering from last year, he had some distance to go, either way I'm happy with Fulton.

To tie this back to the thread subject, I would love to add Belue to this class, he's a heck of an athlete from all reports and we will need to add some depth to the cb position if nothing else. It would also be nice to pick up the other JUCO cb, I can't recall his name but his size at 6'2 200 lbs was very impressive.

I think you're thinking of Dixon. I hope we pull him and Belue. Belue will be a HUGE pickup at least for returns not to mention being a good corner. Dixon would be in the mix right away as well as most to all of Saban's JUCO players have stepped in right away.

if he can stop making huge mental errors like the one he made saturday...

Dude what I've seen on replays if you think Fulton is to blame for that play then I don't know what to say. The view from the game replay was not the best, but it looked like Fulton was playing his lane and after Scott broke containment Fulton simply tried to catch him. Fulton's lane was on the other side of the hash marks from what I could tell and Scott was on the opposite side. Not sure how that is his fault and a "huge mental error":conf2:

Lots of people had lane problems on that return, but Hardie Buck (81)really was obvious missing his lane and assignment.......but he was not the only one....it started off with a horrible kick
