Stoops said he felt good about the linebacker play during Wednesday’s Southeastern Conference teleconference.

“I definitely see a lot of talent. Courtney Love is a guy who was ineligible a year ago, but has played a lot of football, transferred from Nebraska. He’s an incredible leader and a great person to build the defense around being right there in the middle at the Mike linebacker position. So Courtney had a very productive spring and did a great job of just being a leader on and off the field,” Stoops said.

“Jordan Jones is another guy that’s shown just incredible talent, a guy that needs to continue to gain some weight, get stronger, but extremely athletic and looks very impressive out there. Denzil Ware at the outside linebacker really had a good spring, capped it off with a great spring game, which was really good to see.

“And another guy that’s very versatile — can play inside or outside — De’Niro Laster, was ineligible a year ago as well. So those are a few guys. Looking forward to having a good summer, seeing if they can continue to grow. We certainly are a little bit inexperienced there and that will hurt, but I do feel like we’re very talented.”
