Big, strong player who will compete for middle spot

•Austin Box, 6-2, 222, Fr.

Talented player in the mold of Ryan Reynolds

•J.R. Bryant, 6-3, 228, Jr.

Has a chance to start right away on the outside or in the middle

•Keenan Clayton, 6-1, 220, Jr.

Adjusting from the move to LB from the defensive backfield

•Brandon Crow, 6-0, 224, So.

Saw limited action this past season as a backup

•Travis Lewis, 6-2, 233, Fr.

Speedy athlete resembles Lewis Baker

•Mike Reed, 6-0, 258, Sr.

Because of personal issues, still an unknown

•Ryan Reynolds, 6-2, 231, Jr.

A move to the middle could be a good fit

•Lamont Robinson, 6-1, 235, Jr.

With so many new faces, could end up buried on the depth chart

Based on our last game, we need some motivated players, and some crafty coaching.

I think Reynolds would be a good fit. I think he's faster than Lofton, but not nearly fast enough for outside.
