Will the defense be better next year?

Dontrell is a promising young LB recruit as well, and hopefully will provide us with the start to an athletic LB corp like UM has done with its LB's.
I like that. The more athletic the defense is the more versatile we can be with them in terms of coverage and blitzes. Can't argue with trying to be like a team that almost got to three straight title games (even though we got to seee firsthand how good their LBs were... :flush ) .

 
Front four are key
It all starts up front. When your D line can get some penetration, you do not have to blitz as much. Our D-line this year was nonexsistent. This frees up the LB's and allows them to cover their gaps. Some pressure up front would also take the pressure off the DB's. We will be much better next year with Suh and company up front.

 
Suh is going to be a major impact for us up front. He is a very talented player and for him to choose Neb over teams like Miami shows what direction he thinks the program is going. If teams like Miami are going after him, he will be an impact player right away for us. They couldnt land Suh, and we were fortunate to have a program that will keep getting better and he will be huge for us.
