Coming soon. Another impact transfer. Hope its a Tackle, but it may be an inside backer, recruiting continues to roll along very, very well. Gaoteote is still enrolled in classes at SC, but his transfer seems inevitable And without remedy. Fink has retired, that will give the freshmen more reps in practice and in garbage time of games. looks like corner back ITS is staying put and not transferring. Steele, Johnson, and Max Williams look like the starters but ITS will be needed. Those corners with pola mao, and the Texas transfer (at Safety) gives us a seasoned secondary that should help our pass rush get to the QB. Man defense will free up a backer for blitzes, which Orlando loves. Solo and Iosefa will be limited this spring, we need them and Katoa to contribute. Mauga and Goforth will see plenty of action. Coaches have moved two safeties, Croom and Maukala to backers ala Hufanga. Tells you what Orlando is looking for at the position. Our special teams was ranked #1 in the nation last year With punt returns being the only lackluster stat. I would like to see some speed on KO returns. Carr and Bryant maybe. The short kickoff with Bru recovering the kick is a play that must stay. Our PK has plenty of leg but needs better accuracy and our Punter averaged over 46 yards a kick. Both look poised for a good year. AVT is being talked about as a top pick in the nfl draft. Our Oline may surprise us this year.

OL could surprise? Hopefully it is not a surprise for the worse
We are after a WR transfer from Memphis, Tahj Washington. Runs in the 4.3’s. Along with the other transfer from Colorado, nixon, we are getting faster. Really needed some speed to stretch the field and create spaces in the middle of the field. We might see them at KO return.
Both Bru and Christon could be impact KRs also.. Bryant got his feet wet last year too.
