Outlook: New Coach Scott Swinnea's Bulldogs have seven starters back and with a school that frequently has turnover he calls "every year a rebuilding year." This year's holdovers include WRs Blake Bozer and Andrew Hampton. Scott Courtney will also see time at Receiver while starting at Corner on defense. David Bood should fill one spot on the line. A new coaching staff certainly has work to do but with newcomers filling big roles they could surprise people especially down the stretch as team chemistry evolves.
