I'm not concerned that our highly touted true freshmen are not yet playing on defense. I remember in 2001 that M. Hill and Spears did not play regularly and only gradually played more as the season went on. Also, the 2003 team juggled the secondary until Laron locked down the safety position and T. Daniels moved back to corner. I suspect we'll see the same thing unfold this year - more guys gradually rotating in on the DLine, someone (Beckwith?) gradually playing more time at MLB and maybe Robinson or Jefferson playing more in the secondary. We don't have the elite 2011 defense anymore (too bad some of those guys didn't stay) but it will get better. If it pans out the way I think it will, we'll be deeper and better by the time the A&M and Bama games roll around.
