Can we end the Lateek hype train?

I'm all for this young man playing and becoming successful for us but I don't want him out there head hunting and blitzing like crazy every down.For one that just tips the offense what your doing if all he does is blitzes and two if he isn't reading the play correctly and flies past the ball carrier every time then I could care less what he looks like or how much talent he has.If you all want him to head hunt and nail people,and he gets hit up for personal fouls every time then what does that accomplish?It doesn't send a message,it gives the other team 15 free yards.
I'm tired of this Lateek hype train.I'll retract the negativity when he develops,learns,and plays more,which I hope is soon for our own good,as well as his own.

At some point, striking out with these 4 and 5* defensive guys is going to make recruits think twice about coming here.

I wouldn't go that far.They are all still young enough to develop.

I'm just sayin, the best recruits want to be assured that they're being groomed for the NFL, and we have 13 stars worth of Parker, Steward, and Townsend chilling on the bench. Steward has looked better the last few weeks though.

Agreed.Parker was hurt though and is being redshirted.With Kellen Jones available next year I'm not sure if Lateek and BJ Goodson will ever see the field,unless something changes.

Also how many went to the NFL last year? Clemson has put many defensive players in the pros the last decade. Are you blue Cooties other handle?

Every time I read anything on this board about or defense his name is brought up.

you don't want someone out there that has no idea what the play is.
