MESSAGE BOARD POST OF THE DAY
Defensive tackle … Posted by Bradcane
I think d tackle depth is better than advertised. Horton could be a very serviceable back up if healthy. I thought Moten was one of our better defensive players last year and would be a solid starter (even better back up of Scott passed him) and Bain and mesiedor could always kick inside if necessary. Bain should probably move inside but that’s a different discussion… I would expect Malik Bryant to be a candidate for a break out year with another year in the weight room under his belt and wouldn’t be surprised if one of the younger d ends could come in as pass rush specialists on passing situations (if we needed Bain or mesiedor to kick inside).
MIAMI HURRICANES QUOTE OF THE DAY
“They need a pass rusher, they need someone to get after the quarterback. I think we have the most important position on defense because we can mess with the quarterback every single play. …Every single play we have a chance to knock the ball out and cause a turnover, so they just need a pass rusher and they’re looking forward to getting me on campus and showing me that.”
