Talking about different levels of athleticism. Unlike Dordevic .Cook is neither fast or explosive but instead shifty with quick short steps so separating will be difficult unless mindset is aggressive.  Forewarned last year about the pressures of a local kid living up to overhype and how many frosh including Rice struggled in first year because takes time to adapt  Cook dropping several passes to stick was simply due to rushing as   adjusting to speed of college game,.  He was not ready to be a primary but running secondary at a somewhat unfamiliar position didn't help .   
Do believe we shall see a different player this year. He has very good lax skills with both hands that were not  on display because of the aforementioned tentativeness which should dissipate. Let him work at attack solely for full focus.The skillset is there and his aggressive rides show the right attitude and a willingness to engage  despite  size.  Think he will eventually emerge as a primary player whether that be now or later.

As far as third spot, sure staff has idea heading into fall  but hope all legit candidates get opportunity to show including runs with Scanlan and Refhuss
