I think Alabama and Ohio State were the only other schools with 6 players in the top 100 but they didn't have 5 from one side of the ball.
No surprise on my end that Holder was listed. When he played, he was our most impactful DB in my opinion. Our defensive stats in games with and without him two years ago would seem to back that up. The coaches let him play more press coverage than our other corners and the entire look of our defense is much better with him.
Walker Little would probably be on the top 100 list as well except that he is not draft eligible next year. Lots of elite talent on the offensive side of the ball.
I hope that the scheme puts them in a position to be successful. It is tough for even the best players to be successful if the defense knows what's coming every play.
