I've maintained since last year's historically bad offensive debacle that HCSS's future at SU will be tied to what he does at OC, his decision to stick with Lester was risky, and that it would all come down to whether or not Lester had the chops to be an OC.  Would his system be good enough?

Very encouraged by what we're hearing out of preseason camp thus far.  I have a feeling we'll be this year's NC State [in the sense that we'll beat some peer programs and qualify for bowl eligibility].  I could honestly see us winning 7 [or maybe even 8] games, even with the backloaded second half of the schedule IF:
[LIST]
[*]Hunt has a big senior year
[*]The OL returns to quality form after experiencing so many injuries
[*]Estime / Ishmael step up
[*]Our RB duo of MacFarlane / Morris are durable and dependable
[*]Erv becomes a weapon that opposing DC's have to game plan for, opening things up for other players
[*]Morgan / Whigham provide senior stability in the secondary
[*]We avoid injuries at DL
[/LIST]
If those things happen [and I recognize that there are several question marks in there], this team could very well surprise.  I believe that they can get to 6 wins.  If a few things fall into place, they could exceed that despite the pessimistic prognostications from the so-called media experts.
