2020 Returning Player Stats:

Karim Brice caught 7 passes for 78 yards.

Tyshawn Jack caught 6 passes for 127 yards and one score. 

Kyndred Wright rushed for 95 yards on 21 carries and one touchdown. He caught 13 passes for 197 yards and two touchdowns. 

2021 Offensive Outlook: Our biggest key on offense will be the result of our QB battle and how the winner of that battle performs. Outside of that, developing some cohesion on an offensive line that will feature many new starters will be important. I am excited about our skill positions that I think will be talented and deep. Another key will be how well we learn a completely new system.

2021 Defensive Outlook: Like on offense, we will be completely revamping the package we run so learning that package is our biggest key on defense. We are moving some guys to new positions to fit that package as well. Developing depth in the front 7 will be important but like on offense we feel very good about our depth in the skill positions.

2021 Special Teams Outlook: Replacing our Penn State bound kicker is obviously going to be a big challenge. More importantly, we will have a renewed emphasis on the importance of special teams.
