Gilbert Briones will take over full time at QB this year, while RB Luis Mares averaged seven yards per carry in split duty last season. The defense is a bit inexperienced with returning lineman Miguel Pintor one key standout back. Improvement is possible, but it is going to take time for players to adjust to new roles and for newcomers to integrate with returners.
