2024 Outlook:
Offense: We are replacing a lot of production from the last few seasons. We have a solid amount of returning starters that should be able to contribute and make up for that production. We have a veteran offensive line with some young depth behind it.

Defense: We return starters in 7 positions on defense. We must replace some very talented players on this side of the ball as well, but feel confident we have underclassmen prepared to fill the roles.

Special Team: Reid Kotulka completed PAT/FG duty last year as a freshman. He has committed himself to improving and we hope he will be able to handle all kicking duties this season.
