After going 9-3 last season, they return two-way stud John Stelly and there is real potential for QB Jeremy Dickey. Stelly ran for 1,100 yards last year at RB and on defense made more than 100 tackles as a LB. Dickey transfered in and proved previously that he can run and pass, though in a different offense. Hunter Davis is a solid WR and MarQuis James is developing into one. The offensive line has talent returning too. On defense Justin Stephens leads the secondary with Cody Beltran tough upfront. This is another good team in a good district.
