Alexander you'll be missed, but Mullen is coming

Heard it on the news today that The Tigers haven't landed that top of a recruit for the CB position since Alexander. That was the question I had for the defense this year. In my mind, problem solved.
Tankersly and Mullen taking away both sides of the field during key games. Lockdown in the backfield is what we needed, and we've got a good prospect in the Mullen acquisition.

I believe Fields was #9, not too far behind, both 4*s.

It's extremely hard to replace MA. Good as either turn out

to be, they'll be hard pressed to be AS dominant as MA. Dude is a specimen if you've seen him in person up close! Soooo strong for his size, with crazy closing speed, and the ability to high point the ball.......with his head turned more times than not. We'll be solid with the haul + what we had no doubt! Lose a DB that you know will shut down half the field (or his man) every game for the entire year, and it's tough. Him going out played a HUGE role in the NC IMO. He would've gotten that floater, and made the open field tackle to force a punt on 3rd and forever. I mean the guy played 2 seasons really, and he's a 1st or 2nd (?) round pick? I'm not sure where he's projected, but he's a monster. I have full faith in the staff to have the next man ready though!

I think Fields is good also, along with Baker. I think Mullen will want to show his worth in the Spring, I think He has a lot of potential seeing his film. It all comes down to wins the starting position in the Spring. Venables will decide.

College strength & conditioning program will take care of that. I just think this kid has a big upside and will be an impact player- when His time comes.

What made Alexander so special is his brain and dedication... He is always in the film room... Heck he even kept notes on the receivers and qb's on the team for the future in NFL...
That to me is true love for the game... He will be a mainstay in the NFL for years to come...

Alexander was special. We fell apart without him.

Loved having him as a Tiger. I don't expect we will have anyone match his productivity anytime soon, but we have some talented guys signed up.
