It was kind of dull because we played a lot of base defenses because we didn't have the athletes at the corners like we do this year." Another way the coaches have stressed that Is converting senior Will Sullivan from a wide receiver to a cornerback. Sullivan will guard an opponent's best receiver such as Marshall's Nate Poole or Miami's Jay Hall. The top goal of the secondary Is eliminating big plays.
