Who will be our next group of stars from the players that haven't played yet ( or only played a little) ?  I'll throw out a couple.  Interested to see Devontres Dukes, Micario Stanley, and Malik Dixon.  Not sure how much time Dukes will see as the WR depth is strong.  Stanley should get alot of action on Special teams and backing up the LBs.  Dixon played some in 2016 and appeared to be solid prior to the season ending injury.

Darnell Salomon

Little more out of McCants, Wilcox and Dillon.

Need someone to fill Adams' shoes. 

Will be interesting to see how much CCS shifts things around on D.

Salomon, McCants and Sands are my top picks.

Won't be a breakout, but I'm excited to see what DJ can do as the featured back.

Yeah Watts is another one although that Safety position is loaded...Abraham, Dixon, Fullwood, JThomas, McGee, and Hudson.  I think its the position group with the most talent (WR being a close second)

Really looking forward to guy like Craig Watts and Andre Polk on defense. Tyre McCants & Saloman on the offense. Granted I feel like MVS will ball out in the passing game.

I think with RA gone, we see McCants take the mantle. He's built like a RB but has really good hands and great burst.

I'm hoping to see Sands step up for RB.

I'm interested to see more of Salomon this year and Watts, Stanley and Polk on the defense.  Early on in the year I noticed a big dude on the side line wearing #12 and saw that it was Polk.  Excited to see what CCS can do with some of the talent on D.

  • Quotes

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."
