Another JMU football note to pass along: LB Gus Little has left the team. Little transferred from Maryland this past season. He started five games and made 37 tackles in 2017.

Ugh, what is with players leaving the program all of a sudden. Wasn't Gus Little at least a 2nd string LB last year and saw some decent playing time?

I don't think that has anything to do with it. It is a loss but I think the LB room will be just fine. I think Word and Holloway are most likely the starters there anyway, with Matt Terrell playing the edge.
That's a big blow. Must not have liked the new hire today.

Yep. Starters look like Holloway, Word, + Maginely on the outside. According to Maginley's bio, he started 12 of 15 games. Course that OLB position, if I'm not mistaken, usually rotates with the 3rd/nickel corner, so isn't on the field a good chunk of the game. Mike Cobb, #38, listed as a safety, was on the 2 deep behind Maginely, & bio says 1 start at LB. As far as the 2 deep behind Holloway & Word, guess remains to be seen..
