HUNTINGTON, W.Va. -When Boston College graduate transfers Domenick LeGrande and Okechuwu Okoroha stepped into the safety spots at Marshall last year, that was a positive development at the time.

As bad as the Thundering Herd's defense was, there is little argument those two kept matters from getting worse. But their one-and-done status brought the inevitable question:

What will the Herd do now at safety?

That is one of the major issues the Herd faces this spring as the defense tries to recover from a disastrous 2012 season. Only the most diehard MU fan could name the Herd second-string safeties last year.
