Offensive strengths/areas for improvement:
Strengths: can move the ball up and down the field quickly, lots of touches for WRs and RBs, ability to score points in bunches Improvement: Lost a lot of veteran leadership and ability to graduation, need to consistently run ball better
Defensive strengths/areas for improvement:
Strengths: overall team speed is good, 3rd year in scheme, most of LB corps is back Improvement: lost all of starting DBs and DL, need to stop run in key situations
Special team Strengths:
Strength: good, young kickers in program Improvements: better ST coverage
Offensive Outlook:
Offense should be pretty good. We lost a couple of OL but the ones we're grooming should fit right in. We'll keep the no-huddle scheme and try and get better each week.
Defensive Outlook:
Need to replace our secondary and d-line. We have guys ready to step up but we've got some growing to do. We look to have great team speed and should be able to fly around to make plays.
Conference Outlook:
We play in a tough conference with the addition of Twin Falls and Canyon Ridge. Minico will be tough again. We should be able to hold our own if we can have this talented class replace the talent and leadership we lost.
Coach's Team Summary:
It will tough to replace the talent and leadership but this year's group of seniors is ready for the challenge. We've got a lot of experience returning is some key spots on both sides of the ball.
