Its been very noticeable that we have been defense heavy in recruiting. As I have stated before...the bench can be a great tool to motivate players...if they want snaps they have to prove it.
Our quality depth on defense has been mediocre and point out "quality". We had to play some frosh in the secondary who were not ready yet. Mullen loaded up on DBs and we will now the depth to sub if necessary.
I think Trey Dean will be a much better player in 2021 and Elam is an all SEC type guy with the experience he has had. Cox showed a good motor and desire to get to the QB...he knows that will get him better looks at the next level. We still need more LBs, but hoping Wingo will bust out. Black will be a good addition and I think he will be a tweener at LB and safety....the ability to cover TEs and RBs would be a welcome sight. Dexter learned all about facing SEC OL who had strong skill sets and his soph year should be much better. Carter is an experienced warrior and Moon is needed big time to give us more pass rush. 2021 is kind of unknown and I previously thought we would drop 3 to 4 games, but with the additions of transfers...maybe we will be better?

Also have to remember we also have Desmond Watson
That reported to camp at 6'5 and 432 pounds they want him to get to 375 before fall practice starts that guy could be a terror in the middle if he can get to 375.
If anyone can get him there it is Savage.

Agreed
Hoping for a breakout yr from Bogle or Diabate or both
Also a lot more pt for Hopper and Wingo
Also Dexter, Jalen Lee, Princely, Goods etc along with Shelton and Newkirk
Jaydon Hill I see as a baller this yr. Jahari Rodgers could be an absolute stud same for Ethan Pouncey or Kamar. We loaded at corner. Torrence, McDaniel, Collier, McMillon, Mitchell at safety. Some guys
Dean at Safety too. Hope Trevez can turn into a Chauncey type at slot CB or star
Boys we loaded on that back end and I didnt even mention Jason Marshall lol

Our defense will be better next year I feel very comfortable saying that. A lot of young talent to mix in now with the vets and a lot of Mac guys gone that never lived up to much in the secondary.
Our offense will take a hit but will be able to run better than we have since 2012 probably. Very talented backfield and a mobile QB will be very fun to watch next year.
