| This Year's Senior Class FB Ben Bartholomew
WR Zach Rogers
TE Mychal Rivera
OL Dallas Thomas
OL Darrin Gooch
OL Carsen Anderson
DL Joseph Ayers
DL Steven Folkes
LB Willie Bohannon
LB Nigel Mitchell-Thornton
LB Herman Lathers (Possible Medical Redshirt available)
DB Marsalis Teague
DB Rod Wilks
DB Prentiss Waggner
By my count, we will be losing only 2 starters on offense for 2013, and only 2 starters off of the defense (maybe only one if Lathers gets another year from the NCAA).
Obviously things could change if players declare for the draft... but on paper, 2013 could be a very, very special season.

| We COULD lose hunter Bray rogers. Some combination of those. That's all.
People don't yet realize how ridiculous the 2013 defense will be. |

For the first time in years we will have one of the best DLs in the league.

But if we have a good season, I expect to lose a combo of Da'Rick, Justin, and Tyler. |

2013 is light years away as far as the future of the program is concerned. |

I don't see Bray leaving after this season. I do see Rogers leaving though. |
