ON THE WHIPS AND ROVERS: “We just weren’t consistently good enough last year. Gouveia-Winslow has got to be better (at whip). Between G-W, Tweedy, Dew and Patterson, that’s going to be a big, big battle this spring. We need playmakers at that spot. That’s been a playmaking spot in the past and we didn’t have any playmakers there last year. Any of those four could come out of spring as No. 1. I really believe that. ... At rover, we were inconsistent. We’re going to move Exum over there. We’ve also put Lorenzo Williams there, but right now I don’t know if he’s going to be ready for spring – he had foot surgery last year – so we’ve got Wiley Brown back there. But I’m anxious to see Exum. I think that’ll be a good spot for him. I think he’s a good tackler, got good coverage ability, and he’s a physical kid. I think that’ll be a good fit for us.”
