Message: [QUOTE="SoBristol, post: 2955095, member: 485"] Need to note that Guthrie was all-American juco, with over 100 tackles each of his two seasons. Probably as talented and accomplished as any juco we have recruited. Whitner had a couple of starts here, at safety, as a true frosh - his issue was lack of ideal LB size, not smarts or experience in the program. Both guys were seniors. The current LB candidates have good size, some speed, but not much experience other than Armstrong and Cullen. There is more depth and promising young talent. The 2019 defense has multi-year starters in the DL and secondary, so it should be easy to offset some youth in one or two LB spots. If one of the newbies can be like Cisco and play right away, all good. [/QUOTE]
