[QUOTE="FfldCntyFan, post: 5108697, member: 71"] This seems to be a good place to post something I've been working on, I haven't completed the defense yet but below is an overview of what we may be in store for next season on offense and of we lay the groundwork, in 2025, our offense should be exceptional in 2026. 2025 prospectus: [B]OFFENSIVE LINE [U]Returning Starters:[/U][/B] Wes Hoeh; Ben Murawski [B][U]Returning players who saw the field in standard offense:[/U][/B] Brady Wayburn; Kyle Juergens; Carsten Cassidy [B][U]Returning players who should be able to compete for starting role:[/U][/B] Tank Green; Jayden Bass; Danny Antolovich; Finn Wilkins; Diego Rodriguez; Toluwanimi Tunde; Diego Rodriguez; Torian Johnson; Jake Kiernan We have two multi-year starting tackles to replace but we have a few kids with very intriguing size (Johnson 6’8” 330; Cassidy 6’7” 300; Murawski 6’7” 335) and a few with ideal size for guard (Wayburn; Rodriguez; Bass; Wilkins) along with a couple who played at other schools (Juergens; Green). I’m not sure of who will play where next season but logically Hoeh will remain the starting center and the remaining positions should be fielded by guys who will have more than sufficient size and should be multi-year starters for us (as we have a number of linemen with multiple years eligibility remaining). With our current offensive line coach (Sammis) I’m optimistic that our lines will continue to improve year after year. [B]WIDE RECEIVERS / TIGHT ENDS [U]Returning Starters (WR):[/U][/B] Skyler Bell; Jasaiah Gathings [B][U]Returning players who saw the field in standard offense (WR):[/U][/B] Shamar Porter [B][U]Returning players who should be able to compete for starting role (WR):[/U][/B] Unknown what Terrance Smith; Brock Montgomery; Zach Drawdy; Jackson Harper or Bryan Domino are capable of but at a minimum they should provide a good amount of depth to rotate in. We should have a very talented three WR set (Bell; Gathings; Porter) with the ability to force a defense to worry about defending quite a bit of territory. [B][U]Returning Starters/players who saw the field in standard offense (TE):[/U][/B] Lou Hansen; Alex Honig; (I believe) Dominic Toy; James Larson [B][U]Returning players who should be able to compete for starting role (TE):[/U][/B] Bryce Anderson; Clemens Richter; Nader Chirchi I will admit we did not use our TE’s anywhere near as much as many offenses do and I am not sure how large of a role they will play in the offense we want to run. We do have a good amount of size here and quite a bit of depth. [B]RUNNING BACKS [U]Returning Starters:[/U][/B] Mel Brown; Cam Edwards; Durrell Robinson [B][U]Returning players who saw the field in standard offense:[/U][/B] Victor Rosa I listed the first three alphabetically (as they are all of equal value, albeit providing differing skillsets). With Rosa returning we are in a great place here. This is a strength of the team, should ease the development of the new starting offensive linemen and teams that can effectively run the ball usually do at worst reasonably well. [B]QUARTERBACKS [U]Returning Starters:[/U][/B] Nick Evers [B][U]Returning players who saw the field in standard offense:[/U][/B] Tucker McDonald; Cole Welliver I listed McDonald first only because to date he saw more time. I truly believe that Welliver will end up being the starter next season, if not day one, then before the season is halfway completed. This is in part because he should have the highest ceiling of all roster QB’s but also due to lack of faith in how well anyone else on the roster would be able to perform. In all candor, our near term prospects as a program will be as high as this kid can rise. Ideally he’ll be another Dan Orlovsky. [/QUOTE]
