I hope he gets a shot. He showed great coverage skills when he was a CB and then he showed a ton of physicality this year as a safety. Seems like a guy that would be very valuable.

Ant was great all year at safety but he had the play of the year against KState, imo. It was an outside run play to Deuce Vaughn with a lead blocker. Ant came in like a missile through the blocker, made the tackle, and took Vaughn out of the game. Great play in an otherwise frustrating game (and season).

Not exactly sure.

That Baylor tackle he made, that the refs botched and called an illegal cut, was a great play also.

Anthony is an outstanding young man and a heck of a football player. He laid it all out of the field every game. Looking forward to watching him on Sundays.

He was, er, IS a great Cyclone. Wish him well at the next level. I believe this year's move to safety gives him a better chance to succeed in the NFL.
