Analysis: In 2019, the Pilots forfeited their playoff opener against Birmingham Groves due to hazing allegations. They enter 2020 with a new head coach and many eyes on the program after the fallout of the investigation. The team has a few options at quarterback, which include senior J.C. Ford and sophomore Brady Drogosh, but I think junior Carson Roose Carson Roose 6'5" | 185 lbs | QB University Liggett | 2022 MI has some upside and may have the best shot of winning the starting job. Regardless of who is under center, they will have a playmaker in Alton McCullum to throw to. Brett Stanley Brett Stanley 5'8" | 170 lbs | RB De La Salle | 2021 State MI , DeNiro Johnson and John Hunt make up a solid stable of backs that should be this offense’s strength, but keep an eye on junior tight end Gavin Grzywacz as he could be a breakout player at the position. Kadin Featherstone Kadin Featherstone 6'2" | 265 lbs | OL De La Salle | 2022 State MI , Williams Boulus and Anthony McCollom are key pieces returning on an offensive line. On defense, Will Beesley Will Beesley 5'11" | 205 lbs | DB De La Salle | 2022 State MI is a standout player, but guys like Dylan Weaver Dylan Weaver 6'2" | 225 lbs | DL De La Salle | 2021 MI and Matthew Bushon are players that everyone needs to keep an eye on. De La Salle has the talent to end their season on a much higher note than they did last year and could make an appearance at Ford Field this spring.
