Defense isn't Reloading its Rebuilding

Lets face it guys, this defense is either young or inexperienced or both. I hate that we keep hearing it, but it's true. Just watch the games. I think we are so used to reloading that we lose sight of the difficulty doing that.
You don't lose all those defensive starters, especially juniors and just reload. 3-4 juniors leaving, ok maybe so, but even that's difficult. Think about this....if no sophomores or juniors would have left early...this years defense would look like this....
DE- Sam and mingo
DT- brockers and Logan
Lb- minter/barrow/kwon?
CB- Matthieu/Mills?
S- Reid/Loston
This defense will get better but it will be too late when they do. I'm hoping we retain some juniors this go round but I can see ego and Johnson leaving early

defense won't get better this season

The troubling thing is the slightness of any improvement. This is more of a statement of players gaining experience then responding to coaching.

here is the reason. see bama and auburn propsects contributing big time while only white and robinson are listed here. talent evaluation and development has been a problem

It's time to get the young guys some meaningful snaps. Playing welter and loston 95% of the snaps is not helping. This is on coaching.

so if that's the case, why not take a few chances, blitz more, play aggressively, instead of this utter GARBAGE we're seeing that supposedly passes for a gameplan?????

maybe it is the inexperience. Look at Georgia, they are having the same problems, and are just as talented as us. It just takes time in the workout program, growth, etc

And next year we will be rebuilding on offense

why do we have such a bad defense but Ole Miss 2nd string dominated?

most knew this before the first game. not like it was talked about all off season that losing that many juniors to the draft was going to set the defense back.
but i'm glad some are finally realizing this more than half way through the season.

yeah definitly rebuilding.
lets home we can survive the loss of 3/4th of our dline (though freak is doing nothing to deserve to be drafted besides existing)

What are we rebuilding with?
White - Yes!
Kwon - Yes!
Hunter - Yes!
But playing Welter, Barrow, Loston the vast majority of snaps is not rebuilding. Beckwith needs to play a lot at DE or LB. Freak and Ego are playing nearly 100% of snaps. Gilmore, Bain, Herron, etc..are sitting on the bench, how is that rebuilding.
Robinson has got some playing time but he needs more. It's time to get a full rebuild mode project started.
