Corners could prove to be key for Miami's 2017 defense

[FrancisSawyer]

Front 7 that will be top 5 in the country + secondary that will be top 3/4 in conference = best defense in ACC. Not worried about Delaney at all. A lot will ride on Dean stepping up and keeping injuries to a minimum. Also, these guys are naturally more aggressive than last year's group, and they don't have to cover for young guys making mistakes up front. I hope/expect that translates into a lot more interceptions.

Agreed. Barring injury, we all know what to expect from this front seven. The key here is the secondary and I'm beginning to think that they could better than we expected. Especially by the second half of the season.

I want that dude that does the "gooooaaaaaaallllll" call in soccer to do Delaney's first interception as a Cane. Like an 80 yard int return for a TD and my man yells "Deeeeeeeeellllllaaaaaaaannnnnnneeeeeeeeyyyyy!!!!!!" the whole run back. Yeah, and I want it at FSU. cue the dog and little boy praying gif.

Despite all the love you've shown me over the years, you quoting Nas might be my all time favorite post of yours. You my boy Dynasty!

What does Rumph mean when he says a player is urgent? Never seen that used before in describing someone's play.

I see Jackson finding his way in the rotation!! Delaney will be our best CB this year no doubt, BUT this group will come together Coach Rumph is getting his group better day by day..

**Young, Delaney, Dean, Jackson, and Bandy will make it happen in 2017'**

Is Delaney the only one graduating? **** our DBs will be ridiculous in 2018.

Bandy gonna be a torpedo like missile on punt coverage. He's gonna knock someone out this year, and they won't even see him coming. Someone come find this post for me when he does it.

Nah, that role will belong to derrick smith.

I could not be happier when I read and hear the positive comments from Manny regarding the CBs. I was skeptical about the secondary, specifically that a citadel and a JUCO transfer would acclimate to the speed of the game so easily.

From all reports, this looks like it could be a very strong unit.
