With spring football on the horizon, it is always a time of great optimism.
Thwre are many things to be excited about:
- Defense with most of its returning pieces should be very good. Will be interesting to see how some of the newer players fill open spots.
- With a new offensive coordinator and wr coach, it will be exciting to see how the new offense performs. Line could be very good, with the addition of Proctor and a lot of pieces returning. RB and TE positulions should be solid. WR cabinet isn't bare and several young talented redshirts could help out. Now to the QB position, the biggest ??? on the team. Has Deacon (donut role) lost any weight and improved his quickness? Will Lainez show the ability to move into the #2 slot? And finally will Cade be healthy and stay healthy to lead this team in the fall?
- T Taylor is gone as well as super Cooper. Will be interesting to see how Rys develops as the new punter.
With the addition of USC, Oregon, Washington and UCLA the BIG just got alot tougher. Games at OSU and UCLA will not be easy. Washington, Wisconsin and Nebraska at home will be a challenge. Maryland continues to get better and it is on the road. What will the NW and MSU coaches do with their teams? The schedule will be more difficult than last year but we should be better.
So Hope Springs Eternal once again for all Hawk fans. Would love for us to make the college football playoffs this upcoming year. We'll need to stay healthy, have an improved offense and our D needs to get more turn-overs, always a team strength. Only time will tell.
