The Bone Yard

I think we'll see Jackson as a starter next season. Not sure if he'll be a corner or a safety but I'm fairly confident he'll be a starter.

I am really excited to see Jackson get more action... This defense needs a playmaker and I have a feeling he can be the catalyst.

A motivated player with skills in defensive back field! The coaches need to make up their minds once and for all and stop "jerking" CJ around!

I do mean that in a respectable way; play CJ at the best position. He's a natural corner with spectacular tackling techniques. Moving him around back and furth where ever the licks are in the defensive back field may be counter productive to his future FB aspirations,

I gotta agree with you here. Would love to see him at a position and stick to it. Very different technique between playing safety and corner. My feeling is that coaches think his tackling ability seperates him and that because we use our safeties so much in run fits, he is the most valuable there. On a side note, I also wouldn't mind considering moving Heard back to corner. We are going to have ton of talent at running back and he seems to be under utilized there. Plus, we will be thin at corner moving forward.

I think that Heard is in a spot where there is a bit of a log jam. I think that we have a ton of talent at RB. We are much thinner at CB and from all accounts was doing well. I think he is a great talent and think that he could have more of an impact at CB, as opposed to getting 8-10 carries a game.

28 carries in Big ten play.

And that was with our lead back out almost the entire season. If we were looking to take 2 backs this season I have NO idea why we moved heard back to RB.
