Need the experience and depth for sure.  Glad he's N!

Another older player deciding to return, gives the younger guys time to develop. Been missing this for years, perfectly set up for season 2 of Rhule great progress and leads into years 3-4-5. 
this is what we need

Before last season he was not coming back.  Then he played a ton this year and really did a good job.  Nice to see him coming back.

Guys like this wanting to come back really gives me a good feeling about this staff and where the program is headed.

A rotation of Wright, Gbayor and Bullock is nice foundation for the non-Jack LB spots. Would be nice to see a young guy step in and get valuable reps. I am excited to see Rogers this spring. He could devolop into that old school thumper LBer that will help when we play the run heavy teams on the schedule.

White is preparing these guys for the next step both personally (NFL) and as a team.  Nice seeing guys coming back at all levels.

This makes me feel a lot better about LB - we do not have a lot of depth there and Bullock is pretty solid. Also I'd assume since the walk-on scholarships are year to year (or even semester?) he'd be a good candidate for an NIL "scholarship" rather than staying on an official one to help manipulate the numbers.

What happen to the kid from Oklahoma in the 23 class?  I for sure thought he would be fun flying around at LB in this defense.

Fields? He was working at Rover but I think was dealing with some minor injuries. Coaches spoke highly of him, but I don't recall them going out of their way to bring him up. I do hope he grows into an LB though, we've got more rover-type guys on the roster than we do LBs at the moment.

Yess  Fields. I can see him being a year 3 kid. If he can grasp it and build some strength and keep his speed dude would be a beast in this defense.
