With Christian Shepherd, Brandon Lowery and Henry Hunter, he has three ball carriers who are all capable of bringing something different to the table. But how effective will they be after the graduation of Tackle Jared Reed (who is now playing at Northwestern University) and Guard Justen Tyler (now at Midwestern State)? Junior Henry Hunter will start at QB, after passing for 900 yards last season. At WR, Troncias Banks will be in his third year starting and should be Hunter's top target. After a 2-8 mark last season, and a winless district campaign, trying to get to the middle of the pack is a goal; the running game and offensive line will have to be the ones to get them there.
