I disagree. Bryce is a ball-hawk first. Let him do what he’s best at. I also don’t think he’s a great edge setter nor blitzer, and that’s what we ask our nickel to do in this defense. I’m not saying he can’t play there or he’d be bad, but i want him in center field. I think Keionte was the most prototypical nickel Heatherman can have, and I don’t see that player in Bryce.
This is a good problem to have though, obviously. If Poyser comes back, OJ is obviously back (I’m going to church to pray for 2027 health), EOC, Lucas probably back, Dunnigan, Bryce, this is a crazy talented group to play chess with.
I just hope the conductor is back, but that’s another discussion.
