Newcomer Jerry Munoz steps in at QB, while the defense should be led by LBs Zach Willard, Zach Needham, and Cody Stephens. The lines have some potential, but they must be consistent. The majority of last year's roster is gone, but talent is in the program, and another 7-3 type season or better is possible.
