Depth is not great, but the Mustangs are experienced for the most part and two Senior receivers should be great targets for Teel. Julian Madise and Stephen Taylor will catch a lot of passes, and Dwayne Hopkins is a key at Tight End both blocking and catching passes. Key players are back and that should translate into significant improvement.
