Starting QB Caleb McCrae returns after passing for more than 1,000 yards last season; he should have time to air it out with Lincoln Welch, Phillip Braden, Chane Eckert, and Kevin Weirich manning a veteran, experienced line. Cress Netherland should be a good target in the passing game. On defense, Waco Fay leads the line while J.C. Hickman is experienced at Safety. Another solid year seems likely.
