Previews Weeks: Defensive Backs

Welcome to another episode of Y11 Audio; and welcome to Previews Weeks! Let’s preview everything that EMU and the Mid-American Conference have to offer this season in the three weeks leading up to 2024’s season kickoff. Everybody loves a good defensive back. Year in and year out, Eastern Michigan finds new players either through the high school ranks or through the transfer portal to be immediate impacts on the field. This year’s going to be more of the same in that regard, but who expected EMU to get a 6-foot-4 corner through the HS ranks? Plenty of transfers can help supplement this team’s depth, and maybe even start right away, but this defense should definitely see improvement with Joshua Scott back in action at cornerback. Daiquan White, who led EMU in pass breakups as a true freshman, also returns with big expectations. Also, if you need reasons to be blindly optimistic for former Division-III corners trying to make it at MAC level, I’ve got two words for you: Joe Burrow.
