I think he came in as a FB. He started the 11/20/10 game in his last year and played LB in the bowl game. "Proven right" is funny when you consider

he did his best work under Carr/Mattison and then Scott Shafer, but then in 2010 when he only started 7 games that the RR/GERG combo evaluated him and used him properly.

But I realize it is a sacrilege to some to challenge The Blog at all.

  - Nah, they constantly explain that LB is a hard position to play and an even score is fine - By jon September 24, 2026 at 07:57:13 AM
    - I swear most of the critiques here don't really read mgo. They frequently contextualize their ratings, highlight areas of uncertainty/guesswork, the limitations of their method of analysis, how their views and approach have changed over time, etc.* - By doctor_klopek September 24, 2026 at 12:02:45 PM
    - Right, they give DL plus plays too easily and LB minuses similarly. But it's consistent.* - By ftb September 24, 2026 at 07:59:23 AM
