'10 FL CB Cody Riggs (Notre Dame Transferee)

[gkIrish]

Laugh at Farley but Riggs was not much better last season.. both were terrible in fact.

Started all 12 games for a secondary that finished eigth in FBS opponent's passer rating in 2013.

Riggs has played safety and cornerback in that same backfield. Riggs has elite speed by anyone's standard. Riggs is a beast!

I've said all along that I think he did mention the injury after the season, or someone did, but I'm not sure. I heard something about which left me with no doubt that he was hurt.

I'm saying he did mention it, but obliquely. He's up there answering questions off the cuff; it's not like he stopped and thought about how some message board posters might interpret his answers. The injury was likely beside the point ... he was just explaining that he thinks Farley is a better player playing outside-in.

This debate is pointless. He didn't mention an injury, nor did he say that Farley was healthy. These remarks prove nothing.

A couple of people with impeccable sources said that Farley was hurt last season. He still sucked, and it's VERY possible that he just isn't very good, injury or not, but you are not wrong in thinking that people thought Farley was hurt. It was definitely out there, and I trust the people who said it.

You spelled Shumate wrong.

So, anyone here high on Riggs?

Opinion:

2014 base starting defensive backfield: Collinsworth and Redfield at Safety {Collinsworth because none of the other guys except Baratti understand the job enough}, and Russell and Riggs at Corners.

2014 starting "nickel" defensive backfield {to be played almost as much as the normal base}: Collinsworth and Redfield at Safety, and Russell and Luke at Corners, with Riggs at Nickel.

So, yes, Riggs is REAL good and can't be kept off the field, and Coach honors his promise to him about him getting a full shot at corner.

This. I can see him matching up against guys like Jeremy Gallon who gave us fits last year.

Now who is this Gallon Perse guy?

I'll tell you what, he'll come in handy against Agholor.

Ain't that the truth! Can you imagine Agholor dealing with Jaylon Smith and Cody Riggs?

We definitely will be able to get physical in our nickel package for sure. It will be easy to disquise blitzes too, it seems.

It will be interesting to see how aggressive we are in the secondary.

Ever wonder what goes through a 5th year transfer's mind when he leaves everything he knows behind for ONE chance to experience Notre Dame football?

The Turning Point's John Follaco had a chance to ask Alex Wulfeck just that in his latest article.

If you claim to love ND then the few minutes it takes to read the article will be worth it. It will give you an idea what Cody Riggs is about to experience.

"What matters is does it work? Will it really mighty my penis, man? I've used products like this before, I don't mind telling you...and if the Penis Mightier works, then I'll buy a dozen!"

“I wish I could have graduated early and come that spring just to give me more time there. That’s how much I enjoyed it. It was a fantastic time,” he said. “Every game was like the Super Bowl. Every team was excited to play us because we are Notre Dame. Every atmosphere that we played in was just incredible and electric.”

Good quote from the story. Thanks for posting. I actually liked Wulfeck a lot. Was a great short-yardage punter, the kind that IMO should be on every roster unless you've got an AA at Punter. I certainly preferred him punting from the opponent's 40 than Brindza.

Good article. Thanks for sharing.

Riggs will begin camp battling with Luke, in all likelihood, for the second Outside CB spot (opposite Russell). But he'll probably also see evaluation time as the potential "starting" Nickel (CB) Inside, playing the Slot, with Luke more likely to remain Outside in that package. We could be in that "base Nickel" scheme quite a lot given our opponents this year and our roster as is, making that position vital to BVG. Riggs has the ability and versatility to play both spots well.

Still haven't memorized jerseys yet and can't recall Riggs' number, but a few Frosh LBs appear to be: Morgan-5, Sykes-13, Tranquill-23, Williams-33. The rest coming shortly..

 

[koonja]

I think Riggs is going to win that 2nd spot.

 

[GBdomer]

I hope not. I think he could be deadly in the slot and I think Cole Luke will a stud. Cole Luke reminded me so much of Cliff Harris coming out of high school. I hope we give Luke a look at KR or PR. I think his ball skills are elite.

I would think so too, since the secondary is a lot deeper and more versatile at this point than LB. Luke and Russell as the boundary and field corner and Riggs the Nickel. I imagine that they will be in a base nickel almost half the time due to the overall team speed they'll be facing this year. If that is the case, who would be the 2nd LB? I'd imagine it would be either Schmidt or Councell at the beginning, or possibly Morgan if he impresses.

Knowing you didn't write it and knowing who did, are very different.

The GB people always write with grammatical error, to hide their sources.

Cool, Riggs gets it for a year and then Tranquill earns it.
