Good God, that kid, what a mystery. Now we do have a problem at LB because Ben is hurt.
Gary will figure it out.

Welp...Looks like it’s the GW and the Freshman show at LB. D. Winters, D Holmes, Simpson..
Interesting that in 2 years now we haven’t heard so much as a good word about Jacoby Simpson..Weird as I don’t think he’s been hurt.

the one knock on simpson during recruiting was that he wasn't a great athlete and unfortunately in the tcu scheme you damn well better be able to move and cover multiple gaps.

Nailed it.
I can’t imagine GP took an LB that he didn’t think was a great athlete.
I don't totally disagree with you but probably our best LB group in recent history was 2014, and I don't think either Marcus Mallet or Paul Dawson were particularly great athletes. In fact, both were pretty darn slow. And they were paired with a couple slow safeties in Carter and Hackett and that unit was a TO-causing machine. Speed is nice but it isn't everything.
Give me a kid that is a step slow and knows where he's supposed to be over one that runs a 4.5 forty and is lost half the time.
Dawson and Mallett were so slow but possibly our best LB duo ever
