Get it done DT. Weak secondary with just one returning starter. Shred them apart

[Harry]

Good comments from Derek basically saying he knows that he needs to do better than last year. That is all we can ask for at this point.

[KRAM1]

Glad to see this announcement. Derek is the starter and as many of us expected should provide some solid senior leadership for the team. Go get 'em #7, starting with Idaho on Saturday.

Who's #2?

That's what I'd like to know. Are we burning DJW's redshirt to be 3rd string?

[El Paso Eagle]

Going to be honest –

Excited/High Expectation – No (Two years of DT)

Hopeful – Yes (like I’ve said – I will proudly say I was wrong)

I love the Green, but it gets so frustrating seeing other schools get potential game breakers and yet we seem to keep finding the ones who we hope give us the best chance of not making mistakes.
