LT Ciron Black - Jr LG Herman Johnson - Sr C Brett Helms - Sr RG Lyle Hitt - Jr RT ????? Will be interesting to see who emerges as the RT (Barksdale?). With such a seasoned offensive line, it appears as though Perrilloux (Jr) and all of his many weapons are going to have a very successful season offensively. RB - Williams (Jr), Scott (Jr), Murphy (So), Holliday (Jr) FB - Johnson (Sr) WR - Byrd (Sr), LaFell (Jr), Tolliver (So), J Mitchell (Jr), Dixon (So), C Mitchell (Jr), RJ Jackson (Jr) TE - Dickson LaFell will emerge as the leader of this wide receiver crew and take over where Doucet left off. A couple of really big seasons are in store for that talented kid. I also think Dixon has his breakout year as well. On any particular day, we should be able to pass for 300 or run for 300, take your pick. And maybe both.
I'm already excited about next year due to how much playing time freshman and sophomores are getting. I think we will be stronger then what Florida is this year. It will be a rebuilding year but we definitely can win the West again.
The offense should be scary good. I think Byrd will take over Doucet's role, and in fact has already started to. Doucet will be clutch for the home stretch, and given the choice between Doucet and Byrd, all things being equal, I throw to Doucet. However, I think we are beginning to see the passing of the torch, so to speak. Byrd has really stepped up these last couple of weeks and will continue to do so. LaFell and Tolliver will both make great strides going into next season. Overall, I think we will be better at WR and OL next season. Doucet is a gamer, for sure, but I think our 2, 3, and 4 guys will be improved.
Good call. O line should be as mean as ever giving great options to both the run and the fly. Interesting to see what Holliday can do with a couple of shorts off the middle, but I won’t hold my breath. Should see a bit more from the youth in the coming weeks second half play. RP GOTTA stay out of trouble, in doing so would like to see him finesse the play action. Great outlook for a rebuild. :geaux:
