2022 Offensive Outlook: “Our success may depend upon the maturity of our young but aggressive team as we will be starting four freshmen, and two sophomores with just one possible senior. Our focus on details along with consistency is going to play a pivotal role in what success we will have.”

2022 Defensive Outlook: “Our players have to stay aggressive and play with a high level of energy coupled with the ability to play fast without overthinking their assignments.”

2022 Special Teams Outlook: “Winning the field position battle while not giving the big play on special teams and making a few ourselves.”
