KEY PLAYERS RB Jacob Clark (Sr., 5-11, 195); WR Kam’ron Mays-Hunt (Jr., 6-2, 170); WR Clay Barganier (Sr., 5-9, 170); OL Jack Short (Sr., 6-4, 235); LB Destyn Adkins (Sr., 6-1, 190); DB Aaron Estrada (Sr., 5-10, 175); PK Hayden Moehring (Sr., 5-10, 185)

THE SKINNY The Tigers enter the season with a bitter taste in their mouths after having their string of consecutive conference championships (nine) and consecutive state championship appearances (five) end last fall. … Clark finished the season with 900 yards rushing and 11 touchdowns … The duo of Barganier and Mays-Hunt combined for 121 pass receptions for more than 1,500 yards and nine touchdowns. … Short has already made a verbal commitment to Central Arkansas. … Adkins, who had 79 tackles last fall, had shoulder surgery in the spring and was cleared just before preseason workouts earlier this month. … Moehring already has offers from Army and Navy, where his brother Bennett plays. … Senior Canaan Ross appears to be the likely replacement for three-year starting quarterback Kasey Ford.
