The constant praise by Mack Brown of his secondary is all-encompassing. “I’m really pleased with the secondary,” Brown said. “We’re going to be deeper and I think better than we’ve been.” Even with injuries as a sophomore last year, Will Hardy has played 569 career snaps. DeAndre Boykins, who missed last season with a torn ACL, has played 971.
