Offensively, the boys return huge players in Alex Carder and Tyler Van Tubbergen, both of whom are capable of playing the QB position well. Carder will undoubtedly be the starter in his senior season, and is regarded as one of the MAC's top NFL prospects. With him returns all of the running back core, led by Brian Fields. Dann O'Neill will anchor the line as another good NFL prospect, and his crew hopes to improve on their run blocking ability to help the running backs this season.

The huge question mark will be the wide receiver core. Without Jordan White, Robert Arnheim, and Chleb Ravenell, who all graduated, Carder will have fairly new faces to throw to. Josh Schaffer and Eric Monette return from last season as players with some decent on-field experience. Look for tight ends Blake Hammond, Clark Mussman, and Matt Cutler to step up and help out the passing game.
