When you say the offense will be going through some changes, does that mean breaking in whatever QB and younger guys? Or are we going to see a bit more of a revamp?

DJ should be a lot more comfortable calling plays this year. I don't think we'll be seeing the same plays over and over like we did last year. We should see more creativity this year. The QB situation MUST be decided before the end of Spring Practice imho.
I agree with others that Coach Mangus has a year under his belt so it is natural for the offense to evolve as he gets more comfortable. Last year the transition happened at a time it would’ve be very hard to make too many changes in the system, terminology, formations, etc. They’ve had a winter and will now have this upcoming spring to implement changes to all of that.
Last year they didn’t know how the QB situation would unfold. You had one who knew the system and others who were learning it. It made sense not to make wholesale changes. This year, while the QB position is uncertain, I believe they have the time to get all of them acclimated and ready to go.
The online is relatively new, the RBs are as well. The hardest group to prepare is our WR group (New coach and all), but there’s enough experience with the older guys to help bring up the younger guys.
It’s going to be a great spring and summer to watch it all come together.
Love all the new graphics, absolutely plays a role in recruiting. The ultimate recruiter is winning and a winning program is built in the off season. Looking forward to:
A QB separating himself from the pack.
RB’s coming into spring healthy and deep.
OL filling much needed spots.
The new WR coach developing the young guys to become reliable full time players.
The defense developing depth and becoming dominant.
