Sounds weird to call Justis Nelson a savvy veteran, but he will be a junior with plenty of experience to boot coming into the 2015 season. Although his sophomore year wasn't as solid as I had expected, I do think Nelson will do some really good things this season. Defensive Coordinator David Gibbs' speciality is secondary which I think will help Nelson's growth tremendously. With the way Bethel played last season, if Nelson improves and winsthe starting spot opposite him the Red Raiders will have a really solid set of corners. He will be completing with DJ Polite-Bray, Tevin Madison and possibly incoming freshman Jamile Johnson for the spot opposite Bethel.
