Who's the next man up at his position? Those are going to be huge shoes to fill next season...

I think Jalen Spencer is the backup. And he's going to be here next year.

However, for next year Wisconsin transfer Austin Hudson will be eligible and I wonder if he'll get a look at that slot. He's a little bit bigger than Byrd or spencer are. Also, he was good enough to play at Wisconsin as a true freshman so he has ability.

Do we know who will be doing the kicking tomorrow night?? Cant miss field goals in needed games.

Not sure but maybe go for it on 4th near the 30.

Khalid McGee will probably get some looks there too. His high school film looked just like Byrd's so the two have similar skill sets. There should be a great battle at the Husky position this off season.

Think that bullet sheds some light on the quality of the recruits that CWT has brought in.  Gives some hope for a bright future 

[Dogma]

I assume this will be ECU's military appreciation game.  Alt uni's for them?
