Nobody was quite sure what to expect out of the linebacking crew last season. With three key players off the NFL in BUCK Hau'oli Kikaha, Shaq Thompson and John Timu, this was a group that was in rebuild mode. Travis Feeney was physically gifted and had shown flashes of greatness, but there were questions about whether he could play with greater consistency and stay healthy. Cory Littleton had starting experience and had also shown some play-making ability, but could he elevate his game as a senior? Keishawn Bierria had gotten a lot of playing time as a RS-Fr as a back-up to Thompson, and like nearly every young player he showed potential but needed to gain size, strength and consistency.
