Hendricks and Shober in the middle.
You have Keith Lewis and Devyn Harris battling it out at weakside linebacker.
Ghali Muhammad and Todd Knight man the strong side.
That's a pretty gifted rotation and they can all cover. It could be extremely difficult to pass on Wyoming this year, with the back 7 we've got.
The Gibson brothers sit on the corners, and I have a feeling they might excel at bump and run man coverage. It's a more physical coverage style than zone and the Gibson brothers are as physical as any two starting corners in college football.
Chris Prosinski is the ball hawk and tackle maniac. Next to him is a freshman all-American. The depth is vastly improved as well as Marqueston Huff and James Caraway have knocked Kenny Browder out of the two deep early in camp. That should show up on nickle and dime packages and in the MWC you play a ton of those.
On top of that, our ends run well for defensive ends and can pursue the quarterback like a couple of roughnecks we had last year, but a step quicker. I think Gnapton and Biezuns are going to thrive in this defensive scheme.
The only question is back ups at defensive end and back ups at defensive tackle. Purcell and Martens looked more than capable during the first scrimmage. Again, we have an issue about the two deep behind them, but they look solid.
The strength of the defense is definitely our back seven. The two deep at linebacker is extremely impressive.
What do you think Pokes? It looks to me like our linebackers have the potential to be one of Wyoming's all time great groups.
