Norm put the word out in the spring that our defense would be fast,and he was right on,as usual. Now, fast is good, but still want to see Carl Davis and maybe Cooper get into the fray in the middle to give us some fire hydrant run stoppers when we need them.
If the lbs stay healthy, they should be a very good group. Again, a bit concerned with the weight of Kirksey/Hitchens,but we do not play Wisky this year,so if they can hold up against MSU and PSU ,we should profit from their speed.
I was thinking about how much our d-line would again be decimated by graduation after this year,but still hope that with Alvis,Davis,Cooper,Raymond,we could have a solid starting group,with McMinnis,and maybe Alston able to fill in at d-end? Gags and Bigach also need to be in that mix. The back seven could be fine again,despite losing Neilsen and Prater,with Morris,Kirksey,Hitchens,Getz,Dibona,Hyde,Sleeper,Castillo,Lowery,Miller,Law,Lomax,Campbell ect...
We need next years defense to be good enough to allow our very good offense to flourish,with a senior stud at QB.
