No doubt A&M has to show improvement on D if it wants to keep pulling in the defensive talent. The key is they have 2 years of solid defensive classes with '15 looking like it will be even stronger. The '12 D actually had some good talent but more importantly lots of Sr leadership that was sorely lacking last year.
There was some talent last year but it was very young and raw and got burned badly, there was no effective pass rush, no consistency at MLB, and the Safeties were terrible. There is plenty of reason for optimism this year in terms of improvement, the question is how much improvement.
If Garrett can step up as a legit pass rusher along with some of the other young talent like Hall that would change a lot. It looks like Mastro is ready to take over at MLB and has SEC size, can he though? Will the Safeties be able to rebound from a horrible '13, hopefully with better support?
The good news is the bar is pretty low to show improvement but it still needs to happen.
