Bunting expects defense will be 'much improved'

Posted Aug 22, 2005

"This defense should be much improved," coach John Bunting said. There are numerous reasons for Bunting's outlook. He said he also maintains a realistic view of the situation. "We don't have a Julius Peppers or a Rim Sims in there," Bunting said, referring to 2001 standouts and NFL players. "But we may have a David Thornton in there or a Quincy Monk in there."
