    Hard to pick just one, but I have a hunch about Richard Murphy.

    RJF is going to be an absolute freak.

    On defense, Chad Jones without a doubt.

    Offense I'll go with Murphy but watch out for T. Tolliver. Byrd will see a lot of double this year but I still think he'll still get his.

    Nobody picked Keiland Williams, so I'll pick Keiland to have a breakout year. I'll watch him to see if he can rip at least one long run every game, for over 30 yards. I have no real basis to saying that, I just hope that he does. We wanted to win that recruiting war with USC for him a couple of years ago, he's from Lafayette, he's a Jr. this year, and I hope his time to shine has arrived.

    I wouldn't not be supprised if one of the QB's had a breakout year.

    Breakout Player - One of Williams, Scott or Murphy. One of them will get over 1300 on the ground.

    Breakout Frosh - no surprise, P. Peterson.

    On defense, it's RJF's time to shine and go pro next year (sadly). Chad Jones may end up being the MVP of this defense, playing both safety positions and some hybrid LB at times. A rover that will just make plays.

    On offense I agree it's Richard Murphy's time to shine as well. It will still be running back by committee, but his catching ability out of the backfield will separate him from this dynamic trio. Big plays all year long from Murphy.

    Brandon Lafell will take the lead role in the receiving corps and step to the forefront, allowing D Byrd to have a very effective year as well.

    I'm going to pick Shepard at LB, which may be wishful thinking, but I think he's going to surprise.

    I agree with one of the RB's (Murphy, most likely, though Scott could very well take the most carries, ala Hester.) Tolliver is going to be ready to shine.
