Returning:
Drake Davis
Derrick Dillon
Dee Anderson
Stephen Sullivan
Racey Mcmath
Mannie Netherly

Added:
Terrace Marshall 5*
Kenan Jones 4*
Jaray Jenkins 4*
Jonathon Giles - 1000+ yard/10+ TD transfer

Possibly Jamarr Chase

Mix in a bolstered OL and 2 Top 10 HS QBs in their 2nd year and we should be able to field a potent passing attack.

He's not a highly touted recruit so I left him off. We have about 5 more WRs on roster.

We have amazing talent at WR. It just needs to be developed and utilized.

That’s a wealth of riches at WR. Just gotta get a QB that can get them the ball. Hopefully whoever they start next year will be able to get that done. I don’t care who it is- just want it to be the kid that gives us the best chance to win.

Agreed. Passing should actually be our strength in 2018. Pass to open up the run. It's madness.

Ok. I thought you were listing the scholarship guys. Jefferson was the only WR on scholarship that you didn't list.

I think grades kept him from being highly recruited. He played a lot more than McMath and Netherly this year, and reports from fall camp were that the coaches really liked him.

There is some serious size in that group.

We've added some very nice OL talent and will likely return all but 1 starter. We have also hired an OL coach that led USC, Tennessee and the Denver Broncos to league lows in sacks allowed.

I like where we are headed. OC status and how well our young QBs play are the wildcards. We'll have to wait and see how that shakes out.

Jefferson didn't for sure. I'm not sure about the other two, but I don't think they did.

They will. They made plays n all year n spots. They were raw but improved a lot this year. I see both breaking out. SS really looked good down the stretch and Drake is so talented but people forget he hasn’t played football very long. Two years in now so he should be ready. I would rather that last spot go to a qb. I love chase but we are loaded at Wr and need a qb. Or maybe another Rb.

Would be very surprised if Marshall didn't earn a starting spot early in season. He's that special!
