The Panthers should have little difficulty moving the ball on the ground with A.J. George and Patrick Thomas both back after combining for close to 1,300 yards on the ground last season. Cody Sellers returns at QB after a solid, if not spectacular, season last year. Canyon Conley and Harrison Murphy lead the receiving core. A much improved year, including a district championship, are realistic goals.
