2019 Offensive Outlook: To be successful upon offense this season, we will need to replace two D1 WRs, while also replacing 3 OL. However, a strong nucleus returns, while also gaining some potential key pieces. Looking to establish a run game to compliment a high octane passing game will be a key focus. Leaning on our offensive line and senior leadership will determine this unit’s success.

2019 Defensive Outlook: Heading into the season, the primary focus will be attacking downhill and developing a strong run defense. Anchored by 4 LBs returning with starting experience, we will also add pieces to help form an aggressive unit.

2019 Special Teams Outlook: Looking to replace both kicking and returning, we will look to establish an advantage in this aspect of the game.
