The five players everyone should expect to have impacts that haven't produced much for various reasons in their career. These guys will be key factors, outside the obvious stars, to us winning 10 games this season.

1. Steven Fowlkes
2. Greg King
3. Ben Bartholomew
4. Marlon Walls
5. Willie Bohanon

I will be surprised if Greg King can stay healthy an entire season.
I would replace him with Lathers on this list. I say that because Herman hasn't had much of a chance to produce due to injuries.
That being said I really hope your list pans out. GO VOLS!

1. Micheal Riveria (Not sure if he fits your criteria but I think he is about to have a huge year)
2. Eric Gordon (Lanier opens up Gordon to play a whole lot and he is a playmaker and will take advantage)
3. Stephen Folkes (Going to be a big play in the back field maker)
4. Corey Miller (I think he is going to step up and be big in the rotation)
5. Michael Palardy (He gets it together and wins a big game for us this year)

Gordon needs more playing time. He is one of the better DB's we have. Although I like Ben Bartholomew, I don't think he will ever be as good as his brother. I think that a healthy King is a dangerous King. Lastly, I expect one of the running backs to explode this year. Don't know who but I believe that there is talent in the backfield.

Is Corey Miller still on the team? Rivera is the starting TE, has contributed significantly and most are expecting big things from him. So he doesn't fit the script. Same with Gordon.

Most are expecting big things from Marlin Lane. I'm talking about guys who haven't had much expectations the last year or two.

I agree about Gordon. He has play making ability and we will see a lot of that this fall.
Hope your right about Palardy but I think that has about a snow balls chance in h3ll of happening.

Not on the roster and not currently on the team from my understanding due to grades.

Tell me again why we should expect these players to have a major impact this year despite their not having much to this point?
