So basically as long as everyone is healthy come fall and no one gets hurt during the season we are good?

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction:
“I served in the United States Navy"

Has that ever happened in the history of football?

We can dream, can't we?

Sounds like McMillan is on the rise. It is going to be an interesting backfield rotation; kinda like the opposite of when we were worried about splitting carries between Williams, Evans, and Wilson. Man I miss those problems.

I'm excited to hear all of these great things about him, but then I remember he'll be behind at least JC and Trey early in the year and next year, presumably, Shai and Marshawn, and McClease is coming in too.

If McMillian earns time through the thicket of running backs we have, he'd surely be a beast.

Shai and Marshawn I don't think will be in the rotation. I think they both redshirt unless we have injuries.

right.

and next year, presumably, Shai and Marshawn

David taking kickoffs just to get in the field, and wanting to run every one back, so he could tote the rock a few times each game.

Marshawn getting hurt broke me last year. He is so fun to watch. I hope he has a speedy recovery.

I don't think it would be a surprise if the biggest and fastest currently healthiest back won the starting nod. To me it should be a surprise if he didn't.

We ought to be able to persuade a top WR in the '16 class to come on down. They would have a chance at immediate playing time.

And I look for the offense to start off strong and fade as the year goes on because of O-line issues and the defense to get stronger as the young guys in the secondary get it going. Hopefully we can get enough of both to have a big season.
