Bradley is battling Johnson for the spot. Bradley has a lot more physical and athletic attributes than Johnson. While Bradley is recovered from his knee, he's still not fully confident in making his reads and is still hesitating in that area, and Coach Mendenhall and especially Hill are big on position mastery and to this point, Johnson is ahead of him in that aspect.

My guess is that Johnson gets the nod,,,but eventually throughout the season that Bradley overtakes him.

My feeling is also the same with Brandon Howard,,,in that he'll get the nod at the other corner, but so far G Pittman is another one, along with Brannon Brooks, that's have a terrific off-season and has looked fantastic in Spring Ball and will eventually take that position as well.

For the first time in a long time it's a nice thing not to have to worry about the talent level at Corner.

The last time I felt this good about our corners, we were bringing back Brandon Heaney and Jenaro Gilford. Oh wait...

There will never be a time where our CB depth will be to the point where people can breathe easy. Good thing we're deep at QB...

...because like the Warriors, the Cougars can play defense if they wanted to.

Am I close?

Baseball season must've started because you're in left field. :P

Good info, thanks Rock.

Many people are hyping up G Pittman, but I think that Bradley could be something special at CB. As in NFL material special. His knee should be 100%by now and there is no reason to think that he shouldn't be the starter at his position.

My contact in the athletic department said that Bradley did not recover at the normal rate from his knee injury and has not returned to his pre injury speed yet.

That should explain it. Do you think he'll be back to pre-injury speed by fall camp?
