Alot of the kids that played in smaller roles last year will get their chances at the starting positions this year. I think the depth will still be there this year, along with an improved receiver corps. I am really interestedto see how Schaller does at the WR position, he certainly possesses the talent to excel there. #28 Khalil Newman and #5 Devonte Swader are 2 guys that could potentially serve a key role as the season gets further along. Everybody talks about Tim McAdoo, but Austin Murray and Darius Coffey will terrorize opposing teams offensive lines just as much. Look for more of a diversified attack on offense in place from the Patriots. Maybe not a 4 wide passing attack, but just different ways in which they will attack a defense.

Reports circulating that Tim McAdoo has committed to the University of Kentucky.............

I have always said that Austin Murray is the most under-rated lineman in the region. I watched him as a soph and predicted great things for him. He is not only quick, but he has a solid grasp of the game. A very coachable kid and a humble one as well.

 

Another name that doesn't seem to get any credit is Joel Keeling. He has really come on in the last yr or so. I saw so much potential in him as a soph. That kid will knock your brains out.
