I was going to go with Kyle Jackson as well.
I think picking on safeties though is kind of cheating. We always remember the guy chasing the play, when often it wasn’t his missed assignment that led to the breakdown to begin with (though in KJ’s case I think it was probably true more often than not that it was his responsibility).
Of course it was. They moved first year Reggie Nelson from CB to safety just a few games into the season bc KJ was hitting around the Mendoza line at actually covering the correct player. He is by ALL ACCOUNTS are great kid and was a great practice player so they gave him the job again two years later, only to bench him 4 or 5 games into the season to replace him, thankfully, with another true freshman, true freshman Major Wright (who was actually more of a strong safety).
Yes, he was absolutely usually the one out of position. It's like the kid had no peripheral vision or something. I don't know.
Creyer like playing one high, so there really isn't much to it. Stay in centerfield and be deeper than the deepest man. He should have NEVER been fifteen yards behind the receiver, and he usually was.
It's hard to come up with his strength. I guess he seemed to block well on special teams.
Driskel is much the same way. Totally useless on any passing play due to his rolling out of the pocket habit no coach could fix and his immediate panic mode with his eyes on the line instead of downfield. Sofla mentioned his running ability and yet he needed to scramble four times to manage one positive run and was so completely incompetent at reading the option, by his own admission, that they took away his read and called give or keep before the play, rendering the plays ineffective. He was good at taking sacks and keeping the clock running. I guess that was a positive if you believe in Dwag ball.
Driskel's career highlight tape was that one pass he threw vs Tinerc and that one pass in spring practice in 2013 when he actually threw before the receiver broke on that deep out that they kept playing to show us that he had finally improved.
