2022 Offensive Outlook: “We will establish the run game early and with a great core of receivers and quarterbacks, we will start to open things up.”
2022 Defensive Outlook: “Defensively, we are looking to continue to force turnovers, shut down the run, and hit hard! We are working extensively on our pass defense and expect it to take a serious leap forward this season. All-and-All, this should be a good Spartan defense.”
