2016 Offensive outlook: (Please let us know the keys about your team on offense. What are your keys to having a successful year?)

We need to be able to run the football. We are returning 4 starters on the offensive line, and a 3 year starter at quarterback. Adding Diavante Lloyd at the RB position gives us the ability to do a lot of things in the running game. Jaron Macon will stretch the field in the passing game.

2016 Defensive Outlook: (Please let us know the keys about your team on defense. What are your keys to having a successful year?)

Stopping the run. We have to be physical at the line of scrimmage and finish plays. We will play much faster now with the amount of experience returning.

2016 Special Teams Outlook: (Please let us know the keys about your team on special teams. What are your keys to having a successful year?)

We graduated our All Catholic kicker so replacing him will not be easy. We have a few guys in mind to handle the return duties that could be dangerous.
