Coach’s Comments:  

“This is going to be a  brand new team. In all my years of coaching, this is the biggest turnover of personnel I’ve ever had, losing nine on defense and most of the skill positions on offense: the quarterback and four wide receivers. We will have growing pains and hope the offensive line keeps things going until the quarterback catches up.” – Head Coach Tom Maderia
