Secondary is great. And we didn't have RR.

Kwon is our best player on D. Period. He is a really really good LB. Welter still sucks. Beckwith can hold his ground in the middle way better than Welter, but the staff has a hard on for Welter and nobody understands it. All the "he knows the D" is a bunch of crap. Kwon is a 3 year starter. He knows the D.

Rasco looked good last night. I wasn't overly impressed with him last year, but I was impressed with him last night. Hunter is all bark with some bite, but not a lot. Has trouble dissecting some plays and he bites on fakes a good bit and gets turned around. But when he sees it happen, he makes the play and looks like nobody can stop him. I love his hustle and pursuit because he makes a lot of plays chasing down RBs laterally. But needs to be more consistent with his reads. Once he gets it all down, and I expect him to, he's gonna be a stud. Still a good player with the potential to be a great player and is just scratching the surface of his potential... Can't say that for a lot of guys. He has tremendous upside. And thinks he gets there or damn near it.

Our 2 best DTs might be a true freshman(Godchaux) and a RSFreshman that didn't play due to suspension (Bain). I was impressed with Godchaux #57. Held his own against a very experienced and disciplined Wisky OL. Sure he made some mistakes and what not, but he jumped off the TV and has obvious talent. Dude is a true freshman coming off ACL surgery and 300lbs but is built like a brick house and has very little fat on him. He's gonna be a monster. Was a DE in high school and has that athleticism. And Bain is an outstanding athlete as well. 6'4 310lbs and can dunk. That's ridiculous. We missed him. He was my breakout player for this season and still think he will be.

Secondary is our consistent group this year, along with Kwon. But I think our front 7, especially DTs, improve as the season goes on and young guys gain experience. We are most def a young team, but it's also a very talented young team. My hey will get better each week.

When it's all said and done, yes I think they will be better than last years group. Pretty much same team with more experience. Oh and Wisky is legit. Anyone in the SEC would struggle against Melvin Gordon running the ball. He's as good as advertised, most likely better.
