That'll be very helpful.

Also, schools can no longer block transfers...meaning if Jalen Hurts decides to leave the bama program, he can transfer to Auburn and redshirt (as long as he doesn't play in more than 4 games).

Few safeties become exceptional regardless of height.

True, but taller ones usually do not perform as well at the highest level. It’s just an oddity I’ve noticed over the years.

Makes no difference at all.  NFL safeties range from 5'9" to 6'3".  Marcus Allen of the Steelers is 6'2".  So is Maurice Alexander of the Seahawks.  If you can play the position, you can play it, regardless of height.

He's listed as 6'2", but he's likely a tad shorter. Average height of the safety position, in the NFL is 6'0"...I'm sure that extra inch won't hinder his exceptional abilities. He'll be exceptional...unless he isn't.

So we either have an NFL caliber tall safety, or another also ran?
I stand by my observation. You don't see a lot of really good tall safeties.
I would love to have one, but the odds are against it.

Why is he leaving Minn.?

Take it from someone who knows. Even an extra 4 inches has never hindered my abilities.

There are several wives and girlfriends of the x that can attest.

"Hey my friends are the ones that wanted to eat at that shitty hole in the wall that only served bread and wine.  What kind of brick and mud business model is that.  Stick to the cart if that's all you're going to serve.  Then that dude came in with like 12 other people, and some of them weren't even wearing shoes, and the restaurant sat them right across from us. It was gross, and they were all stinky and dirty.  Then dude starts talking about eating his body and drinking his blood...I almost lost it.  That's the last supper I'll ever have there, and I hope he dies a horrible death."
