DOVER, Delaware — Kermit Blount has laid down a challenge for defensive lineman Rodney Gunter.
“I think he’s getting to the point where he is ready to dominate this conference,” Delaware State’s football coach said.
Blount makes sure to remind Gunter, a 6-foot-5, 305-pound junior, of that challenge and his lofty goals for him every practice.
“He tries to influence me every day to be great,” Gunter said.
With the Hornets preparing for their opener at Delaware on Sept. 7, Gunter is coming off a season where he finished seventh in the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference and first on the squad with 0.5 sacks per game (5.5 total).
He led the Hornet defensive line in unassisted tackles (27) and was named to the All-MEAC second team.
Those are impressive numbers, but Gunter and Blount know he has the potential for more.
