Tom Dienhart: How do Big Ten LB units stack up? (Gophers #10)

[BleedGopher]

10. Minnesota. Questions abound. Senior outside linebacker Aaron Hill is the lone starter back. Redshirt freshman Jack Lynn and JC transfer Damien Wilson are battling in the middle to take over for Mike Rallis. Senior James Manuel, a former safety, is competing at the other outside slot. Ex-running back Lamonte Edwards also is in the mix. Stay tuned, as five linebackers were signed in February.

I hope for more consistent play out of this unit this fall. It seems to be the unit that is really key in Claey's schemes because he seems to shoot the DEs upfield aggressively which makes it important for the LBs to cover a lot of territory and be assignment sure. That's a lot to ask.
