Looks like they need a new CB coach. I liked Light's developmental skills but he didn't seem to be able to recruit top talent at the CB position.

Too bad. Nice having a legacy guy around especially one who was part of the last glory days. But from what I understand it’s personal reasons no bad blood with the program. I just hope they grab someone who can really train them up. Experience and depth are issues at that position

Most of the corners that played had been in the program for a for at least a little while he developed well but didn't seem to recruit well as they missed out on the 2017 class entirely and that has had a negative impact on the depth chart.

we finished 5th in the country in pass efficiency defense. Three of the four in front of us were clemson, Ohio State and Alabama. The two right behind us were LSU and Georgia. I think Lyght was doing a great job.

I hope whoever they hire to replace him will teach our corners (and secondary in general) the basic fundamental of turning to play the actual ball when defending passes.

Drives me nuts how this basic fundamental has become foreign in college football and just leads to auto-DPI laundry.
