At RB the tandem of Jordan Runnels and Adam Mack combined for more than 1,100 yards last year. On defense, End Cyle Jones and LB Brett Hajek will lead the way. Even with a large number of players back, impact players are needed and QB Ross Matocha is going to have to have a big season in order to win with any frequency.
