Being around the game for many years, the task in front of him is something that he accepted, knowing that if the players on this current roster are willing to put in year-round work, the Eagles will fly soon enough.
Forget what happened last year or in the past, the off-season is time to change not only the perception of this team, but also the outlook – as 7-on-7 event, camps, combines, and conditioning – will turn this team around.
As they head toward spring, it will be about the rising seniors (2025) that will lead and supply the experience needed.
Here is a look at those players that will be looked upon:
Kaden Magloire, LB/S, 6-1, 180 – 3.4 GPA.
Johens Misere, DE, 6-0, 205.
Connor Plummer Connor Plummer 6'6" | 240 lbs | OL Groveland South Lake | 2025 FL , OT, 6-6, 255 – 3.1 GPA.
Marcel Walker, Athlete, 5-9, 160 – 3.3 GPA.
HOW ABOUT THAT 2026 CLASS
If this team is to turn that corner in 2024, it will be because of the underclassmen, who will not only add depth and talent, but prepare to be part of that NEXT MAN UP the following season.
Here are some of those quality student/athletes:
Jesse Barker, DE, 5-11, 215 – 4.0 GPA.
Murphy Connelly, DL, 5-11, 255 – 3.4 GPA.
Tyger Darden, Athlete/DB/Slot, 5-8, 160 – 3.4 GPA.
Malik Holman, LB/RB, 5-10, 195 – 3.5 GPA.
Tyson Williams, LB, 6-2, 195 – 3.6 GPA.
AWAITING VIDEO
Christian Taylor, OL/DL, 6-4, 275 – 2.8 GPA.
WAIT, THERE’S MORE
While the rising seniors and juniors are going to lead the way, the 2027 class will also be vital to continue to lay that winning foundation:
Anthony Johnson, DL/OL, 6-0, 260 – 3.4 GPA.
Tre Kelly, QB, 6-0, 185 – 3.8 GPA.
Rome McKinnond, Athlete/DB/Slot, 5-9, 165 – 3.3 GPA.
