Outlook: Four starters are gone on the offensive line for coach Doyle Walker, and that means the transition to varsity starting QB could be that much more difficult for Dillon Chafin. Bubba Richards is back at RB, and Chandler West returns as both a WR and threat to run the ball out of the backfield. Dropping down to 3A could be a help for a squad that has similar talent to a year ago.
