Outlook: The Tigers have six starters back and should have strength in the trenches this year. That's good news for QB Logan Smith and RB Jaylon Kennedy. The defense should be solid on the line, while Melvin Lee leads the LBs, and Joel Wren and Ski Spencer work in the secondary. The lines are going to have to lead the way, but when that works, it makes things easier on everyone else. Coach Pete Gee should improve on a one-win season if the team is healthy, focused, and a newcomer or two step up as impact players.
