re: Going to be a YOUNG defense this year.

We'll be replacing Q, Mack, Savion, Thompson, Buggs and maybe Jennings. I'm concerned our struggles in the secondary may only get worse and Q was our entire defensive line this year.

Something about the replacing process of players and coaches feels different this year. Please someone make me feel better.

Its going to happen from time to time, honestly you need these kind of years every once in a while to sort of reset and start a new era. Hopefully this sort of re-kindles the defense like the 2015 year did for that last era of great Saban defenses.

Obviously a big part of that is a lot of young people stepping up, which isn't a guarantee. But I'm excited to see what happens with these guys when they get their shot.
