As for the offense, Quincy Titus is likely to be the starter at QB after completing just 19 of 40 passes last year, including two TDs in a backup role. At RB, Stephen Neel should see a lot of work after carrying for 800 yards and nine scores in 2007; he will be backed up the trio of Sean Britton, Quincy Titus and Tyson Childress, who all saw significant playing time and combined for 10 TDs last year. At WR, nobody with more than four catches from last year is back, but on defense three players that made more than 65 tackles last year return and the defensive line should be particularly strong behind 1st team All-District Ends Ryan Layman and Trevor Owens. The defense will be good; if the passing game gets going at all, the offense will have some balance and the Loboes will be on their way to a very nice 2008 season.
