We are really building the depth to where there are very few question marks and a lot of experience.


Connor Mayes looked very good vs Ohio State and played a lot. Bjorklund has been an upgrade over Bush. Coach Kill said he expects Christensen to be good to go next year and start (huge news). Connor will take a big step up next year.

The development of Edwards and additions of Smith and Jones are HUGE. Replacing Cobb will be the most difficult. We have other good seniors (Epping, Olson, Botticelli, Wilson, Thompson) but we have guys ready to step in at those spots.

We need the new receivers and healthy Wolitarsky (along with Mitch) to step up their game and make the passing game much improved.

I think we can actually be improved on both the OL and DL despite losing two on each.

If Jeff Jones was the real deal...we will be looking good next year


I see Richardson and Elmore as stars as early as next year. I think they can both be BIG TIME and we still have Cockran for another year. The LB's are all growing up before our eyes and we add Poock along with growing up Celestin and Everett Williams.
