I look back to the last 2 years and we had a sophmore Dion, sophmore CJ Fair, Sophmore Keita, sophmore Fab in 11-12 and the defense was outstanding through them.

I look back to last year and we had a sophmore in MCW up top, a sophmore in Rak downlow, a sophmore on Cooney, the defense was outstanding.

I look at this team and it has sophmores in Cooney, Grant, Gbinije, Dajuan and a freshmen in Ennis out there. And technically Gbinije and Cooney are in between soph and jr's. We are younger then the other two teams, but just wanted to state I don't think youth has as much emphasis to do with it as people put on it.

Typically players get better defensively through the offseason with JB's teams, but JB's teams can get alot better defensively as the season goes along as well, and so can players if they put their will to it.
