Love the LB corps. Other than the offensive line it is the group that gives me the most excitement heading into 2015.

I think there is an intangible football skill that I call "linebacker instinct".
It is an early recognition of a developing play and finding your way to the ball quickly. When I watch Poling I think he has "linebacker instinct" and has the speed to always find the ball carrier.
I love all of our linebackers and I think there will be others in the Hustle Belt Top 70.

If Jovon Johnson doesn't make the list the whole thing is a sham!

I was wondering who else might be listed as the count goes up. Certainly he is one I'd think of. I don't know how many offensive linemen will be listed in the top 40, but Ohio has quite a few candidates there, plus Ouellette.

My fear is that they just go based on stats and All-MAC selections from the previous year...so they might miss players like Jovon.

I foresee less and less nickel coverage with the group of LB's we have right now. Kids can run. Depth is a concern but top 3 are really good.

Paul, you just nailed how this usually works. Ohio's LBs will be sharing the stats with each other and the second-teamers. Depending upon the opponent week to week the stats will get spread around. The 2014 defense jumped from something like 6th to 2nd best in the MAC and the individual players get no respect. Sucks does it not?
