re: I see no sense in over spending for a 1 year player

I don't think BK feels this way. Despite what he might say I think he knows this defense is going to have lots of growing pains this year. There's nobody in the portal that will immediately make this defense "good". You still have pretty much the same guys on defense as last year minus an All-American DL and a 2nd round pick DL with a lot more inexperience sprinkled in. The defense is not going to be good but maybe coaching can overcome some deficiencies from last year.


I believe he's banking on coaching this year to help defense since he probably felt it was a major issue last year cleaning house. If they can't get anyone in portal then the money just gets shifted to what's probably going to be an amazing class. I understand what he's doing here and it's his team. I don't fully agree with it especially when you have someone like Perkins on your defense but what can you do?
