There's definitely a lack of quickness but from watching (parts of) the Penn St video you linked, I do still see him around the ball a good amount. He seems able to diagnose quickly and react. But given the fact you put on Penn St specifically, I see most of his bad plays come when trying to get Barkley, who is an absolute stud, likely Top 5 pick, and could be the best RB to be drafted in the past few years. I didn't many opportunities where he was assigned to cover.
