Key Stats: Graduated Sr. QB Jaret Petty (1099 passing, 671 rushing) accounted for more than half of the teams total offensive production in 2016.
Graduated Sr. LBs Tom Miller and Austin Brownawell accounted for 169 total tackles in 2016.
Returning Sr. RB Ryan Adams has rushed 261 times for 2067 yards (7.92 ypc) and 21 TDs in his career including a 1392 yard performance in 2016.
2017 Offensive Outlook: We are working on developing an offensive line that returns just one starter and preparing a new quarterback. Relying on the skill set of veterans at both the WR and RB positions.
2017 Defensive Outlook: We need to continue to be aggressive with an inexperienced front four. Developing linebacker corps has lots of upside. Secondary returns solid experience and athleticism.
2017 Special Teams Outlook: Seeking a replacement for top tier kicker Noah Keiter
