Notes

Live Team Notes

Year 2 of Loggains era after bad first season

QB1 has limited exp (Ark, PU) but is very mobile

RB Lewis had good Fr year, added good depth too

WR a ?, counting on FCS portals + depth

OL a ?, 2 have starter exp, 4 portals have little

Def was a disaster LY, can 18 portals stable things?

DL added 3 portals and 6 croots to help

DBs added 11 portals, should improve here

Clearly building w portals + croots, we'll see
