I am cautiously optimistic about this because I feel like the talent is there but the leadership may be lacking. We will have to rely on guys like Clinton-Dix and DePriest to take over as the leaders on that side of the ball. I still see them as being younger guys even if next year will be their 2nd year as a starter and 3rd year with a bunch of playing time.

ETA: Looking at the roster right now, the only seniors with starting experience will be Stinson and Belue.
