Thankfully, I haven't seen a massive exit from WCU in the transfer portal. Let's hope Kerwin and Cade have done what's needed to hold this team together. I feel very good that based on size and skill set, we have players that are where they belong. My greatest complaint about the Mark Speir era was that he had the wrong players on our roster. The Bells seem to understand and find quality level FCS players that fit. I am hoping we can build our D-Line using the portal. BTW, if the Bells read this forum, THANK YOU! Our defense has finally looked respectable.

The secondary has a long way to go

I think the secondary did not always look that good because of the defensive scheme we were playing at times. Our defense would game plan to stop the run, putting our corners and secondary on an island with no help. If your linebackers are pulled in to stop the run, that puts extra pressure on the secondary.

"The secondary has a long way to go "
Totally agree! We could use a few taller DBs too. Our defense nearly lost to Wofford and did lose to VMI. Just the facts. Need to cut out the personal foul penalties that hurt us at Wofford and VMI....unnecessary, undisciplined play.

I think if we had a decent D we would be playing this weekend in the playoffs
