TULSA, Okla. –– The Tulsa Golden Hurricane football team had an off day on Thursday, but today we review the safety position.

When it comes to experience and depth, the safety position is thin but four lettermen and a talented group of newcomers have had a solid showing during preseason camp.

Senior Jordan Mitchell is a returning back at safety after totaling 61 tackles and sharing the team-lead with nine pass breakups in his first full year as the starter in 2016. Junior Sam Gottsch, who has seen most of his playing time on special teams, backs up Mitchell.
