Woot! We really need to get at least 2 DBs back.

Holy cow, did they practice at dawn?
I know in season athletes get their classes done for the day early, but they must get them done by mid morning if they've already practiced!
Back in the day before major college basketball teams had their own practice facilities, it wasn't unheard of for teams to practice at five or six in the morning. John Chaney famously did it when he coached at Temple. Iowa's Angie Lee, who filled the gap between the Vivian Stringer and Lisa Bluder eras, famously explained "We get them before anyone else can ruin their day."
Bobby Knight? He was known for occasionally practicing immediately following a game if it wasn't a school night. And I'm sure those sessions could get mean and ugly.

Here's KF on what he expects from Brents this week:
"I really see him hopefully helping out on special teams this week, and maybe in some sub packages, things like that. But right now DJ and OJ are our two -- we've got two initial guys. Anyway, they're our two starters at corner right now. That's how we're looking at it."

It’s just nice to have the depth and the ability to try the 4-2-5 if we need it in this one. Brents has done it at this level before.
They have done morning practices since after the 2014 season (it was one of their big changes). I biked past on Monday about 9am, and it was INTENSE. It sounded like they are getting them revved up this week.
Translation: If DJ gets burned a couple of times, Brents will be in there.

Unfortunately, a couple times is going to be a couple too many.

I would think you'd not want that to happen.
Less hair and no glasses, but other than that, pretty much spot on.

Don’t worry. I make Kip look like Ryan Reynolds.
Yes, but I’m also realistic. Peoples-jones, nico Collins and Ronnie bell don’t play. DJ has massive potential, but these Michigan WRs are way more developed than DJ. This isn’t Iowa state or MTSU
If Brent's can go, he needs to start. He either can or he can't. DJ isn't Brents.
