2016 Offensive outlook: (Please let us know the keys about your team on offense. What are your keys to having a successful year?)
Loosing Lucas Forbes as our best running back is a huge hole to fill. We will have a good battle with some returners for that spot. We haven’t had a running back rush for over 900 yds in the last two years but we have managed to rush for team totals over 2500 yd per year. By Committee.
If we can become a better passing team and maintain our success we have had running the football, we will have success.
2016 Defensive Outlook: (Please let us know the keys about your team on defense. What are your keys to having a successful year?)
We lost a few LB’s and DB’s but feel very confident that the players we have returning will fill those spots. Stopping the pass will be our biggest key to success this season.
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 lost our all state kicker/punter but have Jon Benner who is a very kicker waiting in the wings. We think he can be a very good one.
