Conference USA Position Previews: Linebackers
https://www.underdogdynasty.com/2021/7/6...e-marshall
UAB: The Blazers happily return First Team All-C-USA tackling machine Kristopher Moll... except he transitioned to safety this offseason, thus leaving a new batch of linebackers to follow in his footsteps. But a fresh face enters the field from Death Valley after sitting 2020 out with a redshirt. Outside linebacker Justin Thomas started one game for the 2019 LSU team that finished 15-0 with a national championship. Second Team All-C-USA selection Noah Wilder will control the heart of the defense, where he managed 50 tackles and 4.5 TFLs last fall. Former All-C-USA Freshman Alex Wright will be another key returner, as he has made a name for himself pressuring opposing quarterbacks. Rounding out the stellar group is Deshaun Oliver Jr., a rather inexperienced inside linebacker who managed to force one fumble in limited 2020 action.
