Replacing safety McKinley Whitfield will be a priority for the Golden Hurricane. Whitfield was clearly the leader of the defensive backfield, and his big play ability, which included two inceptions, two fumble recoveries and seven passes broken up in 2018, will certainly be missed.

A possible big story would be if Cristian Williams comes back. The 6-0, 176-pound Williams was just coming into his own when a neck injury against Texas last year derailed his redshirt junior season and caused him to retire.
