MichiganDad3 Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Does anyone else have high expectations for Stanley Jean-Baptiste? I love his size and speed, and I think he would make a great compliment to Mo Seisay. SJB looked great against Ohio State. Does he have a chance of starting this year? If not, why was he moved?

austinhusker Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 I would hope he has a chance to compete for the starting job. He was about as raw as one could be at the position and stepped up big time against Ohio State. Surely he has the chance to improve at the position. Quote Link to comment

Playbook - and because of it he was lost on the depth chart at WR. Quote Link to comment
Hunter94 Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 with our chess board mentality, he could end up playing anywhere.....like Heard, we are one defection or one injury away from shuffling the deck some more, which might include Stanley. Quote Link to comment
kchusker_chris Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 outside of Cody Glenn - I can't think of another player in the last 4 years that had much success after a position switch. Not that there is a massive list of them - just no one jumps out. Can anyone think of one? Quote Link to comment
Husker from Kansas Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 seems like i have seen on here before where people said prince switched from rb to cb, donnt know if thats true or not but if it is then he did extremely well Quote Link to comment
BaytownHusker Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Prince came to NU as a RB. Seems like he did pretty dang well. Quote Link to comment
Saunders Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Steinkuhler, Martinez, Reed off the top of my head. Quote Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 I think he'll do well in the defensive back position. He showed some great ability last year when he was called upon and definately has the size to dominate in that position. Not too many defensive backs are that big from what I remember.............

Stumpy1 Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 I would like to see him as our Dime and Nickel backer. Has the size to help in run support and the speed to cover Recvrs and TEs. Quote Link to comment
Blackshirt316 Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 I think SJB is going to have a bigger role this year than people think. We're going to face a number of really tall TE's this year from coaches who like running them out of the slot and H'Back positions. (IE Meyer and O'Brien) We're going to need someone in the nickel to be able to match up with those guys, SJB is the likely candidate for that job. Quote Link to comment
gobiggergoredder Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 No, everyone got way too excited and blew some terrible throws out of proportion. I do hope he does well, but he really hasn't done anything yet. Quote Link to comment
Husker from Kansas Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 i think braylon heard will do well at db, the kid excelled at cb in high school and most schools offered him at that position, if i remember correctly us offering him at rb was a big factor in him committing to NU Quote Link to comment

They are bringing him back to RB unless something has changed in the last week. Quote Link to comment
