I’d consider OL/DL Ryan Monk a key starter lost. He’s a preferred walk-on with the Penn State Nittany Lions football team.
It will be interesting to see how well Dallas does under Mannello since they have 17 starters back from a winning team. Dallas is an affluent school district and traditionally lacks patience with its coaches. Note: You may remember that Mannello was the Head Coach at King’s College in Wilkes-Barre where he won about 30% of his games.
