After the spring game, the Golden Eagles will stay competitive despite losing some key players.
The offense looks sound with the most impressive group at the wide receiver position, where anyone can make big plays. The starting quarterback position is yet to be determined and may come down to who can run the offense most efficiently. With Ito Smith leading the way and Tez Parks having a larger role, the running backs will remain dominant. Defensively, the team concentrated on forcing more turnovers, forcing five in the intrasquad action. The defense will be stable with a strong line and the secondary showing improvement.
