Buxton has been working at strong safety.  Word is Buxton has been running with the 2's behind Cinco at strong safety for most of the summer.

We have 23 DB's, 17 scholarship plyers and 6 walk-ons.   Many of these guys have worked at both corner and safety.  Some DB's have also been looked at at WR.  The coaches are trying to find the best fit for the player and for the team.

From what I am hearing all five positions in the secondary have a different role and responsibility.

[*]The corners are not interchangeable.  One is a boundary-corner and one is a field-corner.  
[*]The three safeties have different roles and responsibilities.  We have the Star position, a strong safety and a free safety.

The 4-2-5 is a new system with a lot to learn.

The first game is just over three weeks away.  There will be three scrimmages (Aug 10, 17 and 24) to help coaches and players determine who will be on the field against Ohio on the 31st.

Go Orange - stay healthy.
