Jalen Tabor's great second act went mostly unnoticed

There is no quiet confidence about Jalen Tabor.

Florida's slender, 6-foot sophomore cornerback is just as loud with his play as he is with his mouth. He isn't afraid to take you out of your game mentally before he drapes you with his suffocating defensive tactics.

Like any good corner, there's an arrogance about Tabor on the field. Quiet and somewhat mysterious away from the game, an animal is unleashed when the pads are on. There's no getting around how good Tabor thinks he is, and he has every reason to boast his nasty, smothering ability.
