Once the full team is here for Fall camp, I think Manny will have more tools to work with than last year. I also expect this defense to be as good as last year's, with a group effort making up for the irreplaceable loss of Willis' disruption.
Our DE/LB/Striker talent is best in the ACC. The DTs are stout with upside. Bandy is a proven beast, and Hall was my favorite defensive commit from the 2018 class. So we have 1 CB to fill from a pool of Ivey, Blades, Williams, Couch, and 1 S position to fill from a pool of Bolden, A Carter, and K Smith.
We're definitely thin at LB, S and CB, and multiple simultaneous would put us in a bind. Barring that, we've got the horses to go against anyone. Hill, Bolden, Nnoruka will all be starters or excellent depth, and there's a lot of talent in that freshman defensive class.
