Considering potential improves to the running game and a improvement to the passing game will USF have 1000 yard or 10 TD WR this year?

I don't think so, only because we are so deep and don't have a specific "go to guy". As a whole I think they'll do great, and the yardage and touchdowns will be spread throughout the team.

No, we always spread the ball around to a lot of different receivers.  We have too much depth for one guy to dominate the stat sheet.

i think johnson could have a shot at 10 TDs.

in college it is so hard to do though because you only play 12 games, 13 with the bowl. 

specially since we arent quite an offensive juggernaut

10 TDs is a possibility especially if somebody (Johnson) goes off versus Elon or FAU.  But I don't think 1000 yards will happen for any one receiver.  We spread the ball around too much, and most routes are short in nature.  Sure it could happen, but its doubtful.  If we had more of upscale passing attack it would be a different story.  Notre Dame for example, had two 1000 yard  and 10 touchdown guys last year alone (Samardzija and McKnight).  Not to mention, Maurice Stovall did it the year before.  USF will try to establish the run more this year, and that will dip into all of our receivers output.

I think a 10 TD receiver is a stronger possibility, than a 1,000 yards. I think Grothe will have atleast 500 more passing yards and the bulk could go to a single receiver. A WR that works hardest could get both.

I also think we could have two 1,000 yard rushers.

Of course you think so.  ;)  :)

I think T. Johnson will have 800 yards receiving and 7 touch downs.

One of our backs, I believe will have +1,000 yards.  - FORD.

With the depth at Back I believe that USF will have 2 or 3 at 500-700 yards (including QB).  Also, we may have a breakout receiver this year that "connects" with Grothe - there is possibility for 8-12 TD's.  That would certainly raise eyebrows nationally.

I think one of the receivers steps up and achieves both.  I think someone will emerge as a primary receiver and I believe we have an OC that truly knows how to put the athleticism we have at WR to proper use.
