After playing the cornerback position in 2013, Louisville’s Gerod Holliman thought he had found his niche, but when a new coaching staff led by Bobby Petrino took over, including new defensive boss Todd Grantham, Holliman was put at a new position more suited to allow him the freedom to roam.
Then listed by the Cardinals as a safety, Holliman dove headfirst into being a student and learning the in’s and out’s of his new position, and after a full offseason of preparation, the 2014 season awaited, but even Grantham was shocked at the production output from his standout safety.
