I feel pretty confident in our coaching staff at preparing these up and comers for next season, just as cat86 said.

Our offensive line will return the most experience with four returning linemen. We also return our leading tackler in Alex Griffith and our leading receiver in Joseph Jamerson. As for quarterback, Adam Crisp will have to step in and try to fill into Michael Burchett's shoes. He has the mechanics to be a really good quarterback, but the confidence & experience may be the only thing holding him back right now. Our coaches should have him ready to run our offense next season. I'm excited to see our young backfield in juniors Wes Robinson & Kain Collins, along with sophomore Bryson Williams, who IMO will play the type of role that Josh Craynon played this season. I think we will be running the ball more often next season - more like 60/40 run.

The defense will be fine IMO. Our coaching staff has been great at getting our defenses prepared in past years. Our front 7 will be tough as we return four starters from there and three others (Max Turner, Wes Robinson, and Kain Collins) who started at some point in the front 7 this season. We return one DB in Joseph Jamerson and two others who received a solid amount of playing time in Nathan Slone & Bryson Williams.

Like I said before, I'm confident in our coaching staff to develop players we haven't seen much of and get our boys ready for the next season as I expect us to be a top 10 team yet again in 2A.
