Senior 6-foot-4, 215-pounds WR and Nebraska-commit Latrell Neville (315 receiving yards, 6 TDs; 174 rushing yards, 3 TDs) is the face of an offense that has the potential to be special.

Also watch for OLB Keith Fountain Jr. and S Kalon Smith. While coach Joseph Sam, entering his second year at the helm of the team and is optimistic his team can build on the process and culture that was established last season.
