Last year Brimer passed for more than 1,000 yards, and should be even better this year. The offensive line has key players back in the fold. In the ground game Michael Ramirez and Gilbert Ledesma are capable. The defense needs players to go along with Cody Waddell and Ben Katzenmeyer. There are reasons to be optimistic.
