Monster game for Darron..Scary thought, he's only gonna get better!

235 pound missle next 2 years? ummm yes please.

Hopefully...

I'd love to see a .gif of him blowing up that block on the edge and (I think) making the tackle. The perfect example of tough, fast and relentless.

I hear you Mili... I thought the same as I hit submit.

What really helps Lee is he's so fluid due to him normally being a safety. He doesn't run stiff, he looks athletic, he's so fast in the first 2-3 steps, and is a devastating blitzer. What I love though is unlike Shazier he can probably cover slot guys more effectively due to his background. Jack of all Trades.

Love watching this young man play. That pass break up last night was spectacular.

The only surprising thing about that play was that it didn't land in the receiver's arms so he could walk it in the endzone. That's the way the ball seemed to want to bounce last night.

H
Lee absolutely abused the TE on that play.

Watching a replay and just wanted to mention when Lee got in the backfield and made the play on 3rd down by tackling Mariota with Washington's help.

Anyway, he was FIRED UP.

I love this dude.

Good analysis. Kid reminds me a ton of Ogletree from UGA/Rams.

He and Kwon are going to flat rule next year. I love it.

Along with Perry.

 

[Bill Lucas]

Booker is going to get time next year too.

 

[Taosman]

Let's give it up for Superman! He had an extraordinary first season as a starter!

 

[Taosman]

Could become better than Shazier?
That would be saying a lot!

"Run away from Darren Lee"

If I was Oregon I would run to the boundary as often as I could. That is where most of Alabama's ground attack worked, running away from Lee and right at Grant. Grant still seems a bit slow filling down to the LOS, and the way OSU pops outside the slot and the way they keep the safeties a bit deeper in their quarters makes me believe that's the better place to attack.

The past couple months Lee has just been a missile out there. Don't counter away from him (he'll blow through the pulling OG), and don't try to get outside of him on sweeps to the edge. If Oregon thinks they can attack Lee on the ground, they better try to punch him in the mouth directly or else they'll be in for a lot of "and-long" situations.

Another example of why you celebrate every recruit. You never know which ones are going to bust out and become super stars.
