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

We have a strong returning OL that has been working well together. We have a lot more depth and we are expecting big things from RB Tahir Cruse, WR Tavion Mack, and are very excited about the new players coming out this season.

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

With most of the defense returning we are expecting a great season. Returning MLB Ernest Holland will lead the defense again this year and with Kenneth Bennett at CB, and a strong supporting secondary, we should be very tough on defense.
