Anyone else excited about the secondary?

The safeties sound like a work in progress right now. The corners are learning a lot more man coverage. Still, I think we've got the best group of hands we've had back there since the days of Stinson, Medina, and Martin. I like Luke Anderson as the free safety. He's got the wheels to make some plays back there. I love the idea of 6'3", 220 pound Mark Nzeocha at strong safety. We need a big guy that can smoke people to scare the wide receivers.

I'm really excited to see our secondary grow.

The opposing receivers are going to be looking to stay away from both Luke and Mark. No doubt they have some learning to do. I like the possibilities though.

And Blair Burns, as a True Freshmen last year, was showing what he could do. He's getting a knack for being in the right place at the right time.

That's what reminds me of Stinson and Median because both of them will pick you off. Anderson has hands as well. We'll see on Nzeocha.
 
Don't forget Luke Ruff who was 2nd team MWC last season. Same as Chris Pro as a JR....
Luke is always consistent. Always. He doesn't get flashy pick6's or hit a RB so the ball goes flying out of his hands but he is the leader of the secondary. Hands down. The secondary will be amazing this season.

The secondary is one of the few positions I'm not worried about. Because for their youth last year, they did pretty well. Outside of Gipson (who did play Safety pretty well), we have everyone in the secondary returning I think.
