2022 Offensive Outlook: “We are installing a new Wing-T offense so our success on offense will largely be dependent upon how well our players are able to learn and apply the fundamentals and techniques necessary for proper execution. We will also need our QB to be able to handle the responsibilities of running the offense efficiently and effectively. Fortunately, our quarterbacks have been working really hard helping us to feel comfortable with that whole unit after a summer of hard work.”

2022 Defensive Outlook: “Defensively, we have to do some heavy lifting by revamping our defensive scheme and teaching the fundamentals and techniques needed to be more efficient on defense. The defense has struggled to stay competitive throughout the game in recent years. This will have to improve in this area in order for us to win more football games.”

2022 Special Teams Outlook: “Our special teams need to be solid so they can help our offensive and defensive units with respect to field position and putting some points on the board through our kicking game.”
