    Whoever gets the starting nod for QB position. I think that they will pleasantly surprise all of us.

    I concur that I HOPE we're pleasantly surprised by Hatch and/or Lee. If Jordan Jefferson comes on to surprise us, it won't be all that pleasant because it'll mean that Lee and/or Hatch disappointed.

    I think K. Pittman has a monster 6th year of eligibility. Beckwith gets back into his '06 form (something was clearly missing in '07.)

    Charles Scott will be "the man" in the backfield, but Murphy will also have a good year.

    Dickson will be a monster, and I hope that Tolliver breaks out, and Lafell catches everything that comes his way.

    We have a lot of question marks, though, and chief among them is the bone-headedness of one Mr. RP. I'd have tons more confidence going into this season if he hadn't been a bonehead.

    Yeah because his 13 catches last year and 2 the year before have definitely set the bar too high...?

    I think Jared Mitchell will be a slight surprise this year and surpass his stats from all previous years combined. Which is not much I
    know but he will be beneficial to the team this year.

    dude was a 4 star coming out, maybe if he was allowed to use a baseball glove, but then he would just lose the ball in the lights.

    How did I know you would be one to point out one of very few baseball flaws he had and compare it to his football performance? :wink:

    He made up for that mistake in a big way against Rice, so all is forgiven in my eyes.

    I'd also pick Scott. With so many questions at QB I think the stronger running backs will need to step up and I think he will.

    I think Harry Coleman will be our next great DB. Why? Did you see him in the NC game in January? Dude was always around the ball and made a couple of key and critical plays.

    Just lucky? Maybe. But even John Elway said "Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good. I mean, I'd rather be both, but lucky will do!"

    I expect Harry to be the next big hitter. :eek:ldskule:
