Gallimore...Murray...Bookie...Turner-Yell....Perkins...Fields. Who else separates from the pack and fills in the remaining D spots?
 
Interesting projections, but I think that given OU's defensive issues in recent years, and especially the past two years which ruined any championship hopes by poor defensive play, it may be time for Riley to overhaul a bit.
My opinion is that only Perkins, Tre Brown, Gallimore and Murray are certain to start, but all other positions....at this time...look like a wait and see situation. Plus there are at least 6-8 freshmen and redshirt freshmen who will get a lot of playing time regardless of whether they start or not.
Grinch has some potentially good talent on board. Let's see what the two-deep roster looks like by September 1st.

Everything I hear about Stokes, has been praise. Apparently, he is the perfect fit. For Grinches defense.
 
Gallimore, Murray and Tre Brown maybe break the 2 deep at Bama and Clemson. Grinch has his work cut out for him...
 
It's going to be a 3-3-5 with Redmond at the jack and Perkins Famatau (sp?) and Gallimore in the dirt. White and Murray at lb, Nookie at nickle, Brown and Motley ( but maybe Parker) at corners and Fields and Turner-Yell at safety
 
There are 5 true freshman DB's on the roster:
Jaden Davis, cb
Jeremiah Criddell, s
Ty DeArman, s
Jamal Morris, s
Woodi Washington, cb
Also 2 redshirt freshman:
Starrland Baldwin, cb
Miquel Edwards, cb
Any news on how they're doing so far and if any are going to play this year ?
 
The disregard for Hiles seems premature to me.
He diffinately needs to play better, but after one year on the team as a true freshman, I'm taking a wait-and-see attitude towards him.
 
Motely must be a very good practice player to still be listed as a starting corner. Hopefully Grinch will pull him early if he does not play better than he has the last 2 years.
