Toren "Old Man" Young.

I think Sargent will see quite a few snaps as well.

I agree. I’m quite impressed with his film. He is very hard to get on the ground.

I just hope our O Line ramp things up

We averaged less than 4 yards a carry last season. I care less about the backs and more about the ability of the line. Not just a lineman or two but all 5 guys. When a back is untouched for his first 3-4 yards then his ability takes over. If he’s running into a brick wall at the LOS or dodging defenders in the backfield good luck with that. OLs = Offensive Success.

While I do believe that KF and the staff think highly of Toren, if I'm not mistaken the leadership group is voted on by the players, not the coaches. Still a good sign of his maturity.
