I know he gets a lot of playing time right now at F linebacker but we seem to be in nickel packages more often than not. Anyone think he could end up moving inside with Devin White after this year?

He's only 230. Should stay at OLB in coverage

I think he definitely gets moved inside next season. You would really be wasting Divinity by putting him at F linebacker as a sophomore.

So who do we expect to play that second ILB role next to White next year?

I think he is better suited to play inside linebacker better than the current middle linebackers for 2017 outside of white

I agree. Dude was the number 1 OLB in the country coming out of highschool.

I would agree if we didn't stay in nickel packages so much. Our F linebacker barely gets on the field. Is that what you want for a kid that was number 1 in the country at his position coming out of highschool?

I think he stays where he is and Donnie Alexander takes over next to white.

Not at all...maybe they will move him around. He will be a starter somewhere next year IMO.

Okay. Forgot about Donnie. Hopefully he can fill in nicely next year. I'm hoping Devin White can come in and play at a high level early.

And Alexander is what...only 215 or so...unless he's pumped up lately...

I just want to see him get on the field more often. Inside linebacker may be the ticket.

He's starting to look Beckwith's size. I'd take it if he knows how to play it

He's going to stay at OLB, he fits that perfect. As of now our ILB will be White, Alexander, Patrick Queen (recruit) and whatever other ILB we land in this class.
