“Malik (Clark) is a guy that turned it on and the end of spring ball. Ramon Puryear and Ashton Gillotte are doing tremendous.”

Linebackers

“CJ Avery is a great leader and a captain. He’s a coach on the field. It’s awesome to have him back.”

“Jaylin Alderman is going to be special on the football field, and Jackson Hamilton as well.”

Secondary

“We have great depth at corner. Tre (Clark) has put in so much work this offseason. Greedy Vance is going to be really good, he can start if we need him to. JUCO Trey Franklin continues to make plays.”

“The safeties are coming along. Kenderick Duncan Jr had been a tremendous leader. Q Cole just got here, but he’s jacked up wnd quick as a cat. Ben Perry made some plays today along with Bralyn Oliver.”
