"He also held the opposition to an average of 0.8198 yards per pass attempt.

That pass attempt figure is the lowest ever recorded by any college player since The NFL Draft Report, a scouting information service, began compiling in-depth statistical reports for the league in 1968. In fact, only two other players went through an entire season allowing less that one yard per pass attempt."

"Through thirteen games during his senior campaign, Dennard has had 111 passes targeted into his area, allowing just seventeen of those tosses to be completed (15.32%) for 91 yards, as he recorded fourteen passes defended (four interceptions, ten deflections) and rerouted/jammed his man coverage assignments away from 62 of those tosses (55.86%)."

He gave up a total of 91 yards all season. 91! QBs were 17-111 throwing to his area.

I don't know about him being the best college CB of all time, but he had the best season statistically for a corner in the history of college football. He was underrated, should have been talked about a lot more than he was. Maybe should have gotten a little Heisman hype, not that he should have won though.

He's always been a physical corner and pretty cut. Think he's put on 15 lbs of muscle in the last few years. He's also closer to 6 feet than 5-11 which will help his draft stock. He's a stud and is trending towards the top half of round 1. If the rumors are true and he runs as fast of a forty time as they say, he could go even higher. He has reportedly run 4.33 hand timed at 197 lbs and he's our 2nd fastest corner, Waynes has run 4.30 flat.

Sure we develop talent, but this guy was a find who played as a true freshman. He came into MSU extremely talented with good size, blazing speed, excellent hips, and great instincts. Kid had 5 star talent out of high school, just played in a small town and the recruiting services never saw him.
