Attrition apparently already starting.

It would be interesting to see what some thoughts on a way too early starting defensive lineup for 2020 might look like.

Interesting for sure. I’m hoping we see a big jump from a few freshmen i.e. Ty Robinson, Heinrich, Hannah, NPG, Newsome and Nelson.

Yes....we need at least one all conference player to develop on each level.

That’s gonna be pretty hard to do. Nelson will

definitely be better. Hardly any of them got any real playing time besides special teams. Robinson, Nelson, Heinrich, & Hannah are gonna basically be forced to be on the two deep at this point unless we add some JUCO guys to those spots.

I think Cam will be the nickel and can also play Dime linebacker (where Lee played in the first half against Purdue) and Williams and Dismuke will be the starting safeties. 

Dismuke tackles like he is just a torso with legs. I would rather have Cam back there or a freshman.

Stille - Daniels - Thomas/Green

Nelson - Honas - Miller - Tannor

Clark - Dismuke - Taylor-Britt - Bootle

 

A lot of the same in other words... hopefully some young guys can either take some of these spots or at least provide more competition and raise the play of the older players

Williams will be one of the starters at safety. His presence this year has been missed. Especially in the run game. 
 

Daniels may start, but with his stamina I imagine you will see a lot of Robinson and even Green play some NT

Yeah, forgot about him. Will be interesting to see what the new DC does with Cam then

I hope we can upgrade at both ILBs, and I would like to see Dismuke slide down to OLB in this defense.

 That would actually be really interesting, hadn't thought of that. I like it. 

 

And even if Honas/Miller start, rotating in Heinrich and Hannah should be better than the current rotation.

We DESPERATELY need these young LBs to pan out.  If not, we are in trouble.  These are HUGE times for husker football...not to add to the pressure, but u cant deny it.

Oh for sure. But I think between Henrich, Hannah, Snodgrass, and out of nowhere Reimer someone has to. I hope.

Probably only in nickel.  No idea why he isn't an every down guy. Hoping he can be another Shaqueem or Super D from 2003....

 

We lose a lot of starters on D. be very young with a killer schedule....I WILL NOT SAY ADDITION BY SUBTRACTION THIS OFF SEASON......

I have high hopes for Green, Robinson, Heinrich, Hannah and Pola-Gates.
