Connors comments on Tech defensive talent - the future is bright
"You’re a leader on a defense with young talent: There’s a lot of great young talent on the team. Guys like Keonta Jenkings, Keli Lawson, all those young guys coming out, those young linebackers, young DBs, the future is going to be bright. Those guys are going to make a great impact on this team."

Might I suggest glasses. Now, had you said I see no coaching, I'd agree.

Do you watch the games?
Lawson and Delane jump off the screen when I'm watching the games. They are both great athletes and I think they'll have great careers if they stay healthy and continue to develop.

Yup, Delane has been popping most of the year and Lawson very recently.
Most of the other defenders are generally solid but too inconsistent and then start to give out late without much help from O.

And to be clear, I’m not talking about performance…
I’m talking about talent. Those two have the athleticism needed to be difference makers.

Delane? Obvious talent

Ignore him. He allegedly was a backup during '88-'91 Speaking of low talent
