Yeah I've been thinking we lost more on D than on O. It will be interesting to see who emerges because I'm sure he will have a really good group. Always exciting to see who steps up. And who is the next Boulware , Wilkins, etc on D. There always seems to be a ring leader type guy

We have 9 starters returning on offense who started at least half of the games and only 4 on defense, so yeah, I think we lost just a tad bit more on defense.

Burrell, Simmons, Wallace and Muse are those four. Turner and Johnson played a lot. McMichael and Goodrich are in the wings. SIX, count them, SIX new secondary players are coming in, several are already on campus. The back end is in good hands. It's going to be a solid defense.

We aren't worried at all. Been there done that.

ESPN talking heads and AP writers will see it as a flaw to proclaim bama as the best ever.

Well said. Looks to me that one CB position, WILL LB, MIKE LB and D-line positions will be open for a new two-deep, and BV has some horses to fill them.

I see XT and AJ T being stars next season, and Kvon and TM stepping up as senior leaders. I’m interested to see who will win the WILL & MIKE jobs. Also to see which DEs gain weight and strength this summer and move inside to DT rotation. I look for Clemson D to be slightly more susceptible to run, but faster with more sacks. Looking forward to 2019-20 season.
