The Big Ten announced its decision Tuesday to postpone fall sports. Minutes after, the Pac-12 made the decision to postpone its season as well.
With two of the Power Five conferences not playing, the entire college football season is up in the air. The SEC, ACC and Big 12 still have plans to have their conference-only seasons, but there are a number of players, coaches and teams that college football fans will miss watching dearly.
The No. 8 player we will miss watching most this year from the Big Ten and Pac-12 is Stanford senior cornerback Paulson Adebo.
Adebo set a school record at Stanford with 24 passes defended (20 pass breakups and four interceptions) and was also named a second-team FWAA All-American in 2018.
Adebo is long-limbed with a muscular frame, playing well at the line of scrimmage. He showed flashes of greatness in 2019, but also showed some inconsistencies. He often snapped his head back to the quarterback in man coverage which is something an NFL scout doesn’t want to see in a cornerback.
Adebo’s aggressive play is something that is highlighted in his game, but can also cause him trouble. He decided to return for his senior year to try and bump his draft stock back up, but now will not get that chance in 2020.
