2022 Offensive Outlook: “Development of the offensive line will be key. Depth at WR, TE, and RB provide different options. Competition at the QB position between Tamlin Ferguson and Matt Keyes has been close throughout the Spring and Summer. The development of the offensive line with 3 new starters will be vital in determining any amount of success.”

2022 Defensive Outlook: “Return several guys who played meaningful snaps on defense. The graduation of Lavon Johnson leaves a big hole on defense. Depth at LB/DB will provide opportunities for competition at several spots. Battles and Steven’s will anchor the Defensive Line.”

2022 Special Teams Outlook: “The 2024 K/P Luke Myers is a Villanova commit. Luke was outstanding as a Sophomore and we look to see even more improvement his junior year.”
