What's left - defense

[PirateVOL]

DT:  JR College incoming will be the starters with Clark and O'Brien providing depth.
DE:  Vereen will start at one end.  Lewis and J. Williams maybe at the other end but I suspect that incoming players will start in front of them  Maggitt in passing situations possibly as part of our rush bunch.

LB:  Maggitt, possibly AJ and Reeves-Martin are the returning potential starters.  Once again the incoming group will have the opportunity to play.

Corner:  Sutton is and will be a fixture.  I see Coleman moving to Nickel.  Foreman and Jones will compete for the corner opposite Sutton.  Depth will be from the incoming class

Safety:  Randolph, McNeil and the incoming class

Coaching:  Whatever it takes, keep Thigpin!.  Stripling's group performed well and showed improvement.  Hopefully Martinez will have a more healthy and skilled group to work with.  There were some interesting schemes employed by Coach Jancek this year (I might have made mention of a few in my Game Reports) but he was working with a slow, thin defense.
