I don't see how anyone can conclude our secondary will be a weak spot...its one of the best units in the conference quite frankly and nationally easily a Top 25 unit. Solid depth as well.
All you have to do is see which poster made the comment.

Cyinthenorth, if anyone is interested.
Btw... does anyone have any sort of inside info on Grant Treiber? The kid gained 32 lbs in the offseason and is now listed at 6'6" 317 lbs. I had predicted in another thread that he'd be our starting RT, and someone else said they thought he had the starting LT spot locked up.
If that's true, that is great news IMO. This kid is a beast, I just wasn't sure about his foot speed, technique, etc though. But LT is the most important spot on the OL, and if he really has that starting spot locked up, that's pretty exciting.
He was on the field a lot last year especially in pass rushing situations. I’ll be surprised if his playing time disappears.

I remember MacDonald being on the field a lot the 2nd half of the season. Watch highlights of the Texas game, he was unblockable.
We return 3 All Conference guys in our secondary
DBs...they absolutely have to get back to tackling like they did in 2017 and 2018. Last year was bad. If you are going to run a 3-3-5, those 5 have to be sure tacklers. It will help having a healthy Eisworth. Here's my shot at the DB 2 deep:
CB: Johnson, King, Antoine
CB: Kyle, D.Young
FS: Ross/Miller, McDonald
SS: White, I.Young/Azunna
STAR: Eisworth, K.Jones
I don’t know if this has been posted, but this article implies that Greg Ross, the NC transfer, will not make it to campus.
he’s already registered at ISU so wonder what’s up with that.
So, COVID hurt Bankston’s development because of lack of practice, but Enyi—who has never played NT before, and doesn’t have the traditional frame—will be okay there?
I’m not sure that makes sense to me.
And remember that they get six weeks of practice time this year—to make up for COVID.
C’mon man that’s an overreaction, White and Eisworth barring injury should be a top 2 duo in the conference.Our secondary is going to be the weak spot again this year. I understand you don't want em too beefy, but hell the average weight is less than 185.
