Who do you guys think is gonna emerge for us and have a breakout year? Personally, I think Daniel Gray, Pig Howard, and Brendan Downs are gonna emerge and have really great years. What say you guys?

Let's hope and pray it's Riyahd Jones, the guy looked ridiculously good in JuCo. But for the sake of our terrible secondary, i really hope it transfers into the SEC game

As far as seniors, I think Jacques Smith is this year's Zach Rogers/Austin Johnson/Denarius Moore. He just has so much latent potential and I think he finally puts it all together this year.

Underclassmen, I think Marlin Lane continues to grow and produce. He was really hitting a stride late last year and I think that continues this year. We'll see.

He was hitting those holes like butt chugging!

Jordan Williams is my emergence of the year. He has a few nice.moves, and if he can put it all together. He'll be fantastic

This thread makes me remember how much potential I thought Matt Milton would have.

What a shame he didn't make it.

I think our entire WR corps is going end up outproducing the last year's bunch. Now the key will be QB play and while I'm a Worley advocate, it might be either Peterman or Dobbs as the QB spark plug. Frankly, I got a sneaking suspicion it won't matter which QB is at the helm. He will have a target rich WR corps that produces.

The RB situation, for me is in flux now. I think CJG had the backs hitting the holes with aggression and it was paying off. The new RB coach, I have no idea if he advocate this style or something else. I'd love to see Fugate back at FB and used as a battering ram in short yardage situations.

On defense, my take is the front four will be adequate but the secondary may again be the weak link. However, if the front four can generate consistent pressure on the QB, we should be OK. McCullers needs to be shifted around to create mismatches and/or force opponents to run away from him to places where our LBs can ambush ball carriers.

Once again, look for the WR corps to make it look like Zach, Hunter, and Cordarelle never left. EXCEPT for the crazy evasive maneuvers only Patterson can do.
