LSU I/M Jacob Phillips (4.66), Wyo M Logan Wilson (4.63), Char O/E Alex Highsmith (4.70), OH ST O/M Malik Harrison (4.66) should all get looks too.
Getting Harrison and Phillips both would help the quality depth issue right away. Harrison has the look of a possible day one starter.

Murray is also considered a leader. His Dad is a pastor. His family adopted three kids that were developmentally challenged when Murray was 10. Murray shouldered responsibility as an older brother to them. Murray is also a gym rat and studies film.

On offense keep all playes on our side of field and get first downs when other teams have to sub they have to run all the way back to there side lines eventually getting tired put some hurry ups in
On defense more blitzing an stop getting i 3rd an long
