How is it a top flight college program he hasn't been coached, trained, or taught to turn his head around and track the ball in 3 years? Why would one even need to be told that? It's common sense. When the WR looks you look. 

College teams have put a premium on recruiting, not x's and o's.

x's and o's is what separates comparable talent. 

all coaches attempt to teach and coach and develop players as thats half of their job. 

Its not half their job anymore. Far more time and resources spent on recruiting. They certainly try to improve the players, but the top teams head coaches are not known as great in game coaches and thats not my opinion. Pretty well understood. Saban, Orgeron? Those guys are not great in game coaches. Silly to suggest otherwise.

Looks like Byron Jones

Reading his weaknesses and other comments about his confidence, this kid seems a bit confused--scared of making a mistake.  I think he is thinking more than being instinctive. 

He is not ideal to be a day 1 starter, he could use some time---but if they limit what they ask him to do scheme wise, he might be fine--  asking any 4th rounder to go up against Julio Jones is asking a lot--

Just my hunches based on what I have seen "slow down " other players
