How is our D gonna be this year?

[Hooks]

We're not going to be able to win a championship without a good defense. We've got plenty of firepower on offense but how do you think our defense is going to be this year with the new additions? Anyone know what our defense was ranked at last year?

[Rynospursfan]

I think our D will be better than it was last year. Jefferson is a better defender than Finley and Dice is far better than Bonner.

This is a good question. In the interior, all signs point to us being better with the presence of Antonio. At the very least, we won't have to ask as much from Tim.

On the perimeter a lot will turn on whether (1) Jefferson can regain the defensive form he had as a Net, and (2) one of the youngsters -- Hairston, Gist -- successfully step up.
