Message: [QUOTE="CuseMan4, post: 5640694, member: 5564"] I think we will be a lot better this season for 3 main reasons. Angeli is back. If he’s healthy we saw what he could do. And even though he wasn’t practicing he’s been watching film, able to get in the playbook more so he’ll be even better for this offense. We literally did not have a capable QB him last season and the offense ranked because of it. I bet if he stayed healthy we would have been 5-7 or 6-6 last year. Still not great but a hell of a lot better than 3-9 and probably the worst FBS team. We actually have a legit OL coach. He has the resume to back it up. The last few OL coaches did not have great resumes and the teams they were coming from were happy they moved on from their last teams. That’s not the case here. Our new OL coach is actually respected. I think after QB, OL coach is the second most important position to actually have a good X’s and O’s coach. We have that this year. Our DC is a massive upgrade this year. We for sure upgraded at every position this off season on defense. Other than probably safety on paper. I think the defense takes a huge leap forward this year. I think we’ll be middle of the pack on defense in the FBS. Which that alone is a huge upgrade and what we should expect. Nixon is a lot better play caller with a competent QB as any OC would be. We know what he’s capable of. He was a very good play caller when he had McCord and the first few games of last year when he had Angeli. I think both sides of the ball will take a leap forward. I think the offense will be pretty close to McCord level. He have a good QB in Angeli, should have a better O-Line, I think Miller will be an upgrade at RB. We have a lot of talent at WR, ALOT, granted not experienced but I’ll take the talen we have there any day. And the WKU transfer we got at TE is a good receiving TE, and you have Clement as a plus blocking tight end. I think we’ll be fine. Schedule is still tough but nowhere near as tough as last years. I think this team goes 7-5, 8-4 [/QUOTE]
