Biggest question marks heading into this season

Harry · June 30, 2013

1. Defensive line - doesn't need to be stellar but can't be pushed around like a rag doll either.

2. Aaron Fortenberry leaves big shoes at center. Can a former walkon Kaydon Kirby come close or will the Juco be able to help?

3. Can any receiver give us a deep speed threat other than Brelan?

4. Can Brelan stay healthy for an entire season?

5. Can DT lead us at QB to more wins than losses in C-USA

Feel free to add, reorder or subtract. Starting to be that time of the year where football absorbs my mind. GMG

I'd order them in importance as 5, 1, 3, 4, 2.

Nailed it. DT has me both worried and excited for this season, hopefully he'll surprise us all.

6. Will there be more pageantry?

It's not that we need another deep threat at WR. What we need is three or four more WRs who can run routes correctly, recognize coverages, and get open...consistently.

And then not throw it over their heads into the stands.

It's always been a dream of mine to catch a game ball at a North Texas game though... haha

7) can the DE's shrink the pocket/ get to the QB?

4. C~~an any receiver give us a deep speed threat other than Brelan?~~ Will the receiving corps be deeper and make more tough catches.
5. Can Brelan and the Jimmy Show stay healthy for an entire season?

6. Can the return game improve to win some field position battles?

7. Will the punting game be as effective?

Spot on good sir.
