Gray – seems obvious, but actually, if MB and JB can springboard off their freshman years, it’s possible that he might not be as big of an impact as one might think.

Marcus Johnson/Caleb Jones – We need a receiver to step up. This is more of a wish than a projection. I truly hope one or both really step up next year.

I’d love to see Daje make an impact, but given how Monroe was used (read: sparingly) last year, I’m not holding my breath.

I think several on defense can make a good impact, simply because last year showed us that Manny is not afraid to play freshmen and he knows how to get them ready.

Okay, here goes.

Johnathan Gray — Wildcat, zone running game guy.

Adrian Colbert — Special teams star.

Donald Hawkins — Starting right tackle.

Malcom Brown — Situational pass rusher a la Chris Whaley last season.

Kendall Sanders — Tough choice between he and Daje, but I think Sanders is a guy Harsin for whom Harsin will design a package of plays.

I think Gray and Brown are the two obvious choices...

And I I could picture Daje having a decent impact if given the chance

We need a good Wildcat guy

JG looks to be the best prospect, so I hope to see him working and training in that limited package, stat.

The WildFozz was absolutely our best formation last year. Its potency was second only to the statistically less significant Shipley Throwing a Pass. Instant impact in the fall if the coaches start working him in practice.

For a stats loser such as myself, the opportunities for seasonal and career rushing records are enough to cause at least half-mast excitement.
