Dawg Fan12: Shouldn’t we recruit some bigger DB’s so can match up with Stanford?
UWDP: Washington’s DB’s aren’t actually small. In general, they’re big, long guys, particularly at corner. The coaches ask a lot of the Huskies’ nickel backs and the boundary safety (the Rover) in terms of covering the bigger slot receivers. Myles Bryant isn’t a big guy, and neither is Elijah Molden. But they’re two of the better football players on the team, regardless of position. It’s just “the breaks.” We’ll have to see what happens moving forward. The Huskies have had a lot of success with smaller DBs under Chris Petersen.
