things that must happen for next year to be 'special'

lots of positive vibes right now on LSU football and they are justified. there are a few 'if's' that need to be realized for next season to be special. help me identify them. here are a few in no order of importance:

1) tyler shelvin continue to improve and come back ready to dominate and be a key part of the DL rotation

2) one of the two incoming rb's (if not both) needs to be ready

3) OL needs to improve. have lots of depth now. but the top 5 need to get it done. period.

4) need a better punt returner, returning to the long tradition at LSU of stellar all-SEC/all-america caliber PR.

5) cade york needs to be good. maybe not as good as cole tracy but good

im not including anything about stingley or CB's because i am assuming Stingley, Vincent, Kelvin Jospeh, Fulton, Todd Harris, etc will be great. in fact possibly better than this year considering Stingley is replacing greedy and the others all have that much more experience now

im not including chaisson because im assuming he will return and not miss a beat

im not including play calling because i am assuming with a better OL this will more or less resolve itself

im not including devin white returning because i dont expect him to, and i think with chaisson, philips, divinity, jacoby stevens, queen, baskerville, et al (and Aranda) the LB's will be great
