McCullers, Sentimore, an in-shape Couch, and O'Brien will make a big difference. Walls was always undersized at DT like the coaches were looking for, so it's nice to see him not have to fluctuate his weight so much. He can focus on one position now. | Top to bottom they do seem to be a much stronger unit. As far as being able to rotate fresh guys in without too much of a dropoff in talent.
Malik seemed to thrive out on the edge towards the end of last year especially, he was such a disruptive force. I think we will see some of that from Sentimore and hopefully T Taylor as well. I know the scheme may change quite a bit, but we seem to be a lot more versatile and depth is clearly better. |

I'm looking fwd to Willie Bohannon at this new position also. I think he gets overlooked a little bit. While he may not be the physical specimen 55 is, he is a solid player that I think will provide quality mins and be a leader as one of the few seniors on the D. |

Not only has this thread produced good discussion, but individual recruiting threads have been a lot less cluttered since this thread started. |

| Glad Jordan Williams and Coleman are starting to play well. I think Williams would be hell coming from the Jack position. Coleman may have some of the better tools of the CBs I watched line up for us last year.
Also good to hear that the players love D.Ansley so far. Much easier to play for a coach you like.
Byron Moore and Randolph are the 1's at safety and here's to hoping they gel as pair back there. |
