Outlook: New head coach Eric Carter inherits a team with nine returning starters, but impact players are among that group. Riley Beecher is back at QB after passing for the vast majority of 1,900 total yards with nineteen starters last season. Top RB Lawrence Roberts will be a full time starter this season, after totaling nearly 1,000 yards and thirteen scores last year via the ground and receiving games. The defense is led by a solid front group including Bryant Henry, Reginald Turner, and Christ Scott. The Mustangs have very good talent at a lot of key spots on the field, and with one or two newcomers proving that they belong, it could be a very fun season.
