Western Carolina’s 2026 Defensive Secondary Embraces Versatile ‘Spur’ Scheme Under New Coordinator Nick Reveiz
Western Carolina University’s 2026 defensive secondary is being reshaped by a hybrid approach that blends cornerbacks, safeties, and a new ‘spur’ position, led by first‑year coordinator Nick Reveiz. The unit mixes experienced players like Marseille Taylor and Ken Moore Jr. with fresh talent such as Andre Jackson Jr., Braylon Jones, and true freshmen Jermiyah Douglas and Caleb Young Jr., all under the guidance of coach Malik Chevry. The season opener on August 29 will feature special events, including a Freshmen Run and a drone light show, setting an energetic tone for the campaign.
