VMI DL Conner Mays brings veteran Keydet toughness up front
Conner Mays gives VMI a sturdy, assignment-sound presence on the defensive line, and his profile shows a long-running, do-it-right football background at the school after originally joining as a tight end before moving into the trenches.[2][8] The biggest appeal is his versatility and physical maturity—he’s not just a body on the line, he’s the kind of player who can absorb the dirty work and help stabilize the front seven, which is exactly the sort of glue guy coaches love to keep around.[2][8]
