New transfers like safety Ricardo Jones—six interceptions last year—and returning standout CJ Heard, who needs to sharpen his tackling, are leading the charge. German standout Issa Ouattara is eager to rebound from injury, while Brian Allen Jr. brings Big Ten grit for a bigger role. And rookie safety Carson Lawrence, mostly on special teams last year, is primed to prove he’s ready for the spotlight. This isn’t just about talent—it’s about players stepping up when it matters most. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
