2020 USF Bulls football preview: Good luck to opposing offenses against this secondary
Cooper Byrd -- Dynasty Sports Staff Writer
In terms of production last season, a solid argument could be made that no other unit in America was as productive as the cornerback room for USF. All four corners that played last season received preseason all-conference honors, quite a feat when you consider that the safeties, Trey Davis and Chip Bryant, might be the most talented ones in what is a loaded, loaded secondary.
A look at USF’s defensive back situation:
Projected depth chart
CB - #2 Bradley Bentley, Sr. :: #24 Ben Lewis, So.
CB - #22 Marcus Hines, So. :: #19 Michael Walker, Jr.
NICKEL - #21 Michael Bush, Sr.
S - #3 Trey Davis, Jr. :: #23 Carl Rodriguez, Sr. :: #28 Brandon Burns, Fr. :: #35 Chris Wade, Fr.
S - #5 Chip Bryant, Jr. :: #17 Sam Peterson, Fr. :: #20 Pierre Hodge, Fr.
Expected starters:
CB #2 Bradley Bentley, Sr. | 6'2", 173lbs | 85 ovr, 93 spd, 92 acc, 90 mcv, 91 zcv
CB #22 Marcus Hines, So. | 6'2", 175lbs | 85 ovr, 97 spd, 91 acc, 91 mcv, 89 zcv
NICKEL #21 Michael Bush, Sr. | 6'1", 173lbs | 83 ovr, 95 spd, 86 acc, 89 mcv, 93 zcv
S #3 Trey Davis, Jr. | 6'1", 188lbs | 90 ovr, 91 spd, 91 acc, 72 tkl, 94 mcv, 93 zcv
S #5 Chip Bryant, Jr. | 5'11", 181lbs | 89 ovr, 91 spd, 91 acc, 84 tkl, 79 mcv, 84 zcv
Major storyline: The only unit on the team to bring back literally every single player that played last season, the new addition to keep an eye on is freshman Sam Peterson due to his athleticism.
