Things are starting to shape up very well for Mars Hill. They have landed two guys from West Florida already and are quietly putting together a great team while using the portal. They were a game away from the playoffs last year and they were a much better team than Newberry who beat WF. Don't be surprised if the Lions make a run this year. They are well experienced and are only getting better.

Jervon rushed for a little over 200 yards last year on 40ish carries. Jerquan is a LB who had 15 tackles in 7 GP. Both originally transferred from Marist to UWF. The RB started 4 games in 2019.

Scariest thing about Mars Hill in recent years has been that one pass catcher that can drop absurd stats when left alone on the edge. Craig Rucker and now Ty Snelson have been big time players for Mars Hill. From what I remember the defense was pretty good last year as well, didn't deserve to lose to LR by as much as they did. The question I have is who is going to be throwing the ball? Presumably Urzua isn't coming back, right?

I think the Newton's will thrive in the system once they learn it. I think the LB will be a role player for the Defense but the RB will have a chance to start. Don't know how you insert a guy regardless of their skill when you have two ALL-American LBs coming back. Maybe they move to a 3-4 and play with him as a weak OLB. Regardless those two guys will make this place better. Have heard nothing but good things from peers about them. They say that the Newton's have a really special year planned and they obviously know what it takes to win games and has played competitive football at a high level. This will basically be their 6th year of being around college ball so I'm pretty sure they know a lot and can help out the guys around them.

So who do you feel as though he will replace at RB in the lineup, Joraye Morrison, Lafayette Gurvin, Chancellor LeeParker, or Traneil Moore?
