QB
Zach Terrell - 3rd year at starting spot. Looking to make a statement his senior year.
Tom Flacco - Name look familiar? The younger, more athletic brother of Joe.
Jon Wassink and Matt Little have big frames and will provide strong depth.

RB
Three-headed monster with Jarvion Franklin (earth), Levante Bellamy (wind) and Jamauri Bogan (fire).

WR
Corey Davis - 1st team all-MAC, will be playing in the NFL after this season. Polished receiver, good route-runner, big hands, big frame, good top-end speed.
Looking for a #2 after Daniel Braverman declared for the draft. Lots of young talent from good recruiting classes. Names to keep an eye on: Michael Henry, Anton Curtis, Carrington Thompson, Kadeem Goulbourne, Keishawn Watson.

OL
John Keenoy - Started at center as a true freshman last year. First game of the season was against Michigan State's monster front 7, and he held his own. Special kid, will lead an experienced line this year.
Taylor Moton, Chukwuma Okorafor, Jackson Day - all experienced linemen with lots of talented youth waiting behind them.

DL
WMU has about 10 legit guys that could start, but not too many standouts. DEs Nathan Braster and Keion Adams will be solid. Lots of experience on this line.

LB
Robert Spillane is a standout on defense and freshman Tristian Pipp (early enrollee) might make an immediate impact.

DB
CB Darius Phillips was fantastic as a converted wideout. S Asantay Brown was inconsistent, but showed flashes of brilliance. Tons of young talent here as well. Look for Iowa transfer Malik Rucker to make an impact.

ST
Darius Phillips is a kick returner that you don't sleep on. Took one to the house against MSU. Almost took the opening kickoff to the house as well. Very fast, good vision.


If you can't tell, I'm very excited for the upcoming season. There's so much young talent here already and more coming in with the 2016 class. This season should be a lot of fun.

WMU's big problem last season was a murderous schedule.

I think they thought Ga. Southern was a 'breather' game. Lol. Not so!!
