I WANT to believe that we have the talent to get close. I thought that a couple of weeks ago. Now? I'm not too sure.
On offense:
QB: Should be a three-way battle between Ganz, Lee, and Witt. I frankly don't know who will win the battle, but I sure hope that the competition brings out the best in the victor.
RB: Helu, Lucky, and Castille. I really think Helu could win the job out of fall camp. He runs harder, and is a good receiver. He just doesn't have the home-run factor that Lucky does. I think a rotation of these three will be fine.
WR: This will be a tough one. Purify and Nunn are gone. Let's hope Paul, Holt, Henry, and Brooks are ready to contribute.
O-Line. We've heard how great Keith Williams and DJ Jones are. Let's see it happen. Javario Burkes is going to be very good. If we can get these three to anchor the line, we might have something.
On defense:
D-Line: Kuli and hopefully Justin Thompson should be starting next year at DE and DT, respectively. I don't know if Kuli will take over for Potter or a disappointing Turner, he needs to play. If we have a D-line of Potter, Suh, Thompson and Kuli, I'm good with it.
LBs: Hallejah, Ruud and McKeon are GONE!!! Dillard will be at Mike, I'd like to see either Stafford or Washington at Will, and Lawrence perhaps at Sam. In any event, this group MUST get more athletic.
DBs: Having Murillo back will be good, and look for Blue or West to win the job opposite him. As for safety, give me Thenarse and Culbert. Asante sucks.
If we have the right coaches, this group could be good and challenge for a Big 12 title. Let's hope TO makes the right call.
