It’s kind of weird to think that … it kind of feels like I just started playing football. I’m trying to step up more.
“They're all really good guys,” Russ said. “I’m really good friends with all of them. I’m excited to see the battle they’re going to have with each other. That spot is open and whoever gets it, gets it, and we’re going to roll with him.”“I think we’ll be just fine,” Russ said. “We’ve got new stuff coming in … new staff … so it might look rough these first few days, but we’ll get it down.
Linebacker Terry Thomas, also a rising junior, is ready to take on more of a leadership role as well on a defense that lost so many veteran players. “I loved how we played in the short field and took care of the football for the most part and I liked how we lined up defensively. I really liked our communication and how we lined up on defense with urgency.
