1. It is hard to interpret coachspeak from reality but reading the herbal tealeaves it appears, the team will be more run-based because the coaches are unsure about the QBs.

2. It sounds as if the receiving crew should be adequate. Will we have an adequate TE?

3. Hill having an extra year should improve the defense. How much? Unless injuries overwhelm the team, I suspect the defense won't be the sieve it was last year. Injuries could change that of course.

4. I expect the team to at least be bowl eligible, but not much more than that.

So the ceiling is probably about 7 wins and mid conference results.
