It hasn't gotten close to the lofty levels of 2015 under the leadership of Mathias Farley, but it is improving.
It's the leadership on the field that makes the difference.
Drue took responsibility for the blocked punt against NC State last year. They can't take he and Love off the defense this year.
Nic Weisher has done a good job of leading them this year, but one of our top players blew an assignment on the Northwestern blocked punt (Alohi).
I believe, without a doubt, that the special teams would be even better this year with one of it's standout leaders (Crawford). Big loss for Polian.
It will take a more dramatic leap next year with the addition of a large group of savvy young athletes from this freshman class and the return of Crawford.
Imagine: Allen, Noah, Oghoufo, Lamb, Moala, Lenzy and Keys
