D1 (FBS & FCS) Prospects: Jr. QB Collin Shank, Sr. DB Ross Souders
Key Stats: Jr. QB Collin Shank threw for nearly 2,000 as a sophomore.
2014 Outlook: We have a lot of skill guys coming back on offense including our QB, Collin Shank and two of our top three running backs (Ross Souders & Austin Landis).
We need Jason Sindorf to take a step up to fill the number one receiver as well as a few others to add quality depth. Some guys who can step in soon are Andrew Hay and Chad Guadino. We lost two quality tight ends but think we have three or four guys ready to fill the void.
Defensively, we need to replace the line. At linebacker, we have a solid returning nucleus with Andrew Buchanan & Grayson Hirst.
Our secondary returns two starters in Ross Souders and Jason Sindorf at Corners. I think the depth in the secondary will be solid.
The area of biggest need due to graduation is our defensive line. Dan Kreider and Isaiah Carr both got playing time a year ago. There are several players we think are ready to make their impact this year.
