By Doug SmockCHARLESTON, W.Va. -- RANDOMLY strung-together items from Marshall spring practice and beyond:As you may have seen from a story in the Saturday Gazette-Mail, the redevelopment of D.J. Hunter at safety bears watching, from now through August and into the opener against Miami of Ohio.His move to linebacker last year was probably the right one, though it came a week late. He was the starting nickel in the 69-34 debacle at West Virginia, after which the defensive coaches wised up and moved him to strong-side linebacker.Weighing maybe 200 pounds after going for seconds, Hunter was nonetheless the best linebacker on the field, and at times the best defender on the field.
