Defensive line: There will be a dropoff here. Returns starters Kingsley Keke and Landis Durham but loses Zaycovan Henderson and Jarrett Johnson. The loss of Johnson was obvious during the LSU game. Need to find a rush end and nose tackle quickly or this might be a glaring weakness.

Linebacker: Return every scholarship player. This is a good thing.

Cornerback: Returns Nick Harvey after a medical redshirt and everyone else except Priest Willis.

Safety: The loss of Armani Watts will hurt but will be partially offset by the return of Donovan Wilson after his medical redshirt. Room for potential here.

1. DBs idk which ones but I can't imagine they all stay. I will say Dunning probably retires. Maybe Robinson transfers at DE. Garner has had concussion issues so maybe he hangs them up.
2. Okeke may spin down. Gillaspia might be a FB.

These things are tough to predict. We may see a situation where some of the older guys just Grad transfer somewhere.

Michael Clemons: Defensive Line, Senior

I believe Clemons will only be a JR this year. He was listed as a SOPH this year, and I think he only spent 2 years at a JUCO, one of which was his redshirt yr. So he still has 2 years left to play.
