He's very good.  He started at CB every game of his true freshman season and most of his sophomore season.  By the end of his sophomore season he had been beat out at CB by a true freshman in the following class, so he moved to safety where LSU had suffered a bunch of injuries, and started there for the last few games of the season.

Never missed a start in the 39 games he's been at LSU.  Rather surprising he didn't declare for the draft this off season, would likely have gone in the first 3-4 rounds.

Big blow for LSU as he's a senior leader, has CB ball skills at the FS position, very good tackler, and dropped from safety to nickel when LSU went to 5 DB sets.

Good news for LSU is that it's the deepest position on the team, so there's plenty of good backups to take his place.  Still will be a drop off from what Mills would have provided.

BTW I'm hearing now it's an ankle injury and reportedly it's not a break.   Probably no better than a 1 in 3 shot he plays against you guys...if that.

Here's some career highlights if you care to watch...although why you would watch highlights of a guy not likely to play against you is beyond me.
