I remember before the 2012 season, there was a picture of CP, Bray, Hunter and Da'Rick (before his booting off). And I remember being so excited about the prospects of what that offense would do.
I feel like if you took a picture of Lane,Hurd, North, Malone, and LP, I'd probably get just as excited.
Are we missing a QB of Bray status? Yes. But the thing is, if you have QB's that can put it close to where it needs to be, a good WR will make the play. There are many a play that are made in spite of the QB, not because of him.
I think we will have a great offense this year. And I think that not just LP, North, and Malone will make an impact, but I think Josh Smith will be better, Jonathan Johnson will be better, Vic Wharton will make an impact, Pig hopefully will be coming back. There's going to be a lot of playmakers in this offense this year. Just need someone to take the QB job and command the offense. The other great thing about having two solid TE's and so many good WR's is that HOPEFULLY, it will keep defenses from bringing crazy blitzes, which will be good with such a young OL.
I'm excited about this offense this year. And I am getting excited about the defense, but I think the excitement on defense will explode once these freshman get here on campus in the fall. When we start hearing about Hendrix, and Kelly Jr. and Berry twins, and Chris Weatherd, and Bates....then we'll really start feeling better about our season.
