Question - Deep Safety
So RR said for the most part that deep safety is his biggest concern in the secondary and it may be a position in which true freshman can contribute.
Who are all the candidates to play this position? (even the true freshmen)
Is JT Turner a candidate for deep safety? Or would he fit more of the Cam Gordon safety position? Why is the coaching staff reluctant to turn Turner into a safety? (I'm assuming depth at CB)
What are some creative solutions to the deep safety postion? I.E. Could Woolfolk go back?
Interested to hear the opinions out there.
Thank you, I feel the same way when someone compares Kovacs to Griese.
Wasn't a freshman All American
I think the point is still valid being a walk-on doesn't preclude him from being good (not that you were saying this). The guy has already proven himself to be good in his first year. I mean Michigan has a long history of safeties that can hit but aren't fast enough to cover good tight ends and recievers effectively June, Shazor, Patmon, Mundy, J. Curry, Hendricks etc., and Kovacs this year will be asked to do less than traditional safeties are asked in terms of coverage.
