Not really. Our DL was younger in 2017 than in 2018. And outside of Milan, who was hurt in both seasons, we were healthy at DL in 2018.

Also lost a starter to transfer and Lere had his issues. Several guys were banged up as well. Yet Roundtree improved. I think this year will show where the DL is at, more than anything.

The Packers announcement on Butkus was on the 7th. If there’s still that 2 week posting requirement, should we expect official news on Thursday?

Very cool if true. He's been at North Carolina correct?

Yep. I'm sure there will be new excuses this year. 1 player showed noticeable improvement in 2018, Roundtree. We had guys banged up both years. And 2017 we were playing almost all frosh/soph vs soph/jr in 2018.

Clark recruited well but the jury's out on his ability to teach.

Ignore the grad transfer starter that we did not have.
