Key Stats:
Rushed for ever 2000 team yards last year
May led team with over 1700 all purpose yards
2020 Offensive Outlook: We are moving conferences this year and looking at opponents who are closely aligned in size with us. We need to start fast and keep the pace up throughout the season. We have plenty of skill on the edges and under center, we just need the O-Line to mature quickly
2020 Defensive Outlook: We should be stout all the way through. We need to replace two top-flight defensive ends, but we have a great core coming back. WE should be able to lock down on the outside and be tough in the run game. Finding a few defensive linemen to rotate will be key
2020 Special Teams Outlook: We are replacing our all-state kicker and punter this year, Jack Wessler, so we need someone who can help change field position.
