Sure wish that we could get those fast, athletic, non-LDS, black, Pac-12 CBs that always end up at other schools like UT (TIC)!

The only schools I'm familiar with that could go by UT and possibly match that description are Texas and Tennessee. Who would this Pac-12 school you speak of be? (TIC)

Queue angry :utard: fans saying that even though the :utard: offered him, they never wanted him to begin with.

I think Bronco has this recruiting thing figured out. Go get JC corners when needed to fill in gaps. Hopefully, we go get one more corner/safety combo guy that can play some nickel for us after Sampson/Hague both graduate.

A CB over 6 foot? Nice!! When was the last time that happened ?!?!

Seriously, when WAS the last time that happened?

Hadley is 6'.

Fact is, most corners are shorter. Extremely rare to have an elite corner over 6'1". And with eht 3-4 we play, we need one bigger guy to play more physical, the other can be shrter with more speed to cover in space. Orphey will play the physical side like Hadley does.

The article lists Orphey at 6'1"

And true, Everett is listed at 6'3".

Still, it is pretty rare, and certainly something to celebrate. What's Orphey's 40 time?
