Not bad. Speed would definitely be killer but it is a young and inexperienced group. Lets just hope they can limit mistakes.ROLB

^That would be my preference for the LB 2-deep come fall. That's some serious speed. With that as a 2-deep, there likely wouldn't be any Slot-backs burning the LB's on slants and crosses like UCLA loved to exploit with franklin on Compton and whaley.
Nebraska did not have the benefit of seeing Afalava at his best. He had lost some weight when he got there and it took time to get his feet wet. A year of conditioning and comfort will do wonders. He looked to be the best LB prospect last year. What a terrific problem we have.also, my money is on afalava being a terror much in the same way Thomas Brown is being raved about. Afalava's high school film reminds me of terrell farley and demorrio williams. He's a heat-seeking missile out there.
Its going to be interesting, and probably the most interesting position battle during spring. Makes me wonder how much we will see formation changes and how much we will go 3/3/5, 4/3 and this 3/4 that we sold Gregory on. I don't believe we will be a base 3/4, but I think we will see a great mixture of defenses on the field. It will be nice if we do, because it will be harder for offenses to come up with a game plan.Nebraska did not have the benefit of seeing Afalava at his best.

Oh God, not the 3-3-5. The 3-3-5 gives me nightmares of 2007.Its going to be interesting, and probably the most interesting position battle during spring.

From what I've heard, he's stronger and faster than before. I think he is going to be a stud!As long as he retains his speed, Zaire could be the star of this defense.
