...when I longed for the prowess of Jamal Harris in the defensive backfield.

Christyn Lewis, congratulations.
 

6' 2" and 170 pounds? Lewis shouldn't even be playing in the Big 10.
 


I don't generally rip players but he just can't tackle. I don't think he can bend at the waist.
 

This team just played their hears out and this is what you come up with&!*#@$
 


He really has a hard time making a tackle. I don't know if I have ever seen a player get abused by a stiff arm more than Lewis.
 

Right about the stiff arms. It's been noticeable a few times this year. Manuel was in there for the next series.
 

He is physically very weak. If he cannot make a tackle at the knee or lower and wrap up, he just is shrugged off because he is lacking so much physically.
 

Most frustrating kid to watch out there by far. I am not going to rip his effort, he is just not good. Thing about the first passing TD today, the PI call against Iowa last week and the tackling issues. Play Manuel or Thompson the rest of the season.
 



Now there are two threads on Mr.Lewis.
 

Why can't Manuel beat this kid out?

As a stronger kid, Manuel should just give him the atomic wedgie during practice one day and then assume his roster spot.
