Key Stats: Our two leading rushers from 2014 return (Ingulli & Battle) & 2^nd leading tackler (90+) returns (Frick) & Leading receiver returns (Rios)

2015 Outlook: We will be thin on the OL as long as we stay healthy we will be in good shape

Offense: Get Gavin Hiller comfortable as soon as possible. Establish the running game which will open up the passing game.

Defense: Create turnovers and limit 3^rd and 4^th down conversions. We allowed to many big plays last year.

Special Team: We must replace our punter (Steffen, who was all league and all region)
