Team NotesSame HC, OC, DC, S&C coaches for 4 years
QB C. Morris (4th school) can sling it & run it
QB Morris (N Tex) was #4 pass yds LY, Kaelin #2
Off could jump w/ better OL, good RB, QB + WR
OL has top 20 exp but 57% via portals.
WR rebuild, top 3 are portals, better depth TY
OL 4/5 back, took 7 portals. Lots of depth.
Def pretty bad LY. Took 16 portals, 9 DBs
Talent #'s impressive, 5th in ACC, big jump.
Lowest SOS in P4 should lead to bowl
