University of Alabama cornerback Javier Arenas was named the Southeastern Conference Defensive Player of the Week following UA's 24-15 victory over LSU.

A week...
…too late. I know that Patrick Peterson is the more physically gifted corner back, and will almost certainly be a top 15 pick, but no one is playing better as a corner back in the nation.
It has been really interesting watching how the staff utilizies him, you can tell that Saban and Smart have a tremendence amount of coinfidence in Arenas. He plays all over the place, and often plays close to the line as an almost safety.
My favorite line from the blurb:
Arenas is now tied for second in the SEC in tackles for loss with 10.5.
At cornerback, no less.
Arenas has probably been the biggest steal...
…of the last 4-5 years. Think, he only got offers from Sun Belt teams until Shula offered.
FAU or FIU...
…offered him (can’t remember which), but those were his only offers.
