Final Comments:
We lost a good senior class, but we return 17 letterman and have a veteran group once again. Jared Witherow returns at QB and we believe he is one of the best QB's at the DVII level. We return some very good skill players and we'll add in Roy Simmons a move-in into that mix. We do have to replace three lineman up front, but move-in Braidon Miller will help with that and Parker Bowe as well. Defensively, we lost all three DL, so that will be a point of emphasis early on and we believe we have two very good ILB in junior Julius Gore and Owen Ball. We believe we can have another good year, but we need to get off to a good and fast start.
