2023 Offensive Outlook: Good offensive line. Solid skill position players. Very quick running backs. Have to protect the football. Passing game is developing and improving with all of our skill players returning. Run game should be good with the return of All-State RB. We want to be competitive and establish a solid running game to compliment our improving passing game. Minimize turnovers and put our players in a position to win football games.
2023 Defensive Outlook: Defensive front should be quite good. LB’s and secondary are improving. We have to get better at stopping the run. Have to teach these kids how to win consistently and change the culture of the program. With the return to District playoffs last season should help to carry over to another successful season. Experienced coaching staff will help. Very talented overall group on both sides of the ball returning.
2023 Special Teams Outlook: Young kicker, but snapper and holder are back. Must improve our tackling on special teams. Need to cut down on big plays and returns. Emphasis will be on special teams. Good kick returner is back.
