Final Comments:
On offense, lost 4 of 6 starters on line/TE; lost starting FB and QB; on defense lost 6 of 7 up front on defense; lost 2 way standouts Nick Novak and Francis Connors; will need to use pre-season to gain experience and confidence on both sides of the ball; return talented skill players in the defensive secondary and at slotback and split end on offense.
