Spags and Staff Are Ready

The first player casualty was announced a few days ago with the release of Corey Chavous. At least though Chavous knew it was coming and asked to be released early so that he might have a shot at finding a spot elsewhere. Perhaps Chavous was slowing down some and didn't fit the new coaches scheme on defense, but I'm sure that his leadership will be missed by younger players and his committment to the game.

With the first cut under his belt, coach has a long ways to go before he is satisfied with what he's got. Will Holt and Pace be released or will Spags feel there's a need to keep one or both by restructuring their contracts?

Will Bartell and Otogwe be resigned, deservedly so, despite a horrible season for the team, both these young players had record seasons for their young careers and are developing into very good players and deserve at shot at continuing under Spags.

Will Withespoon be kept and moved to his natural postion or will one of the team leaders be let go?

So many questions to be answered and so little time.

Can he do it? Will the team improve? Will the team succeed? How many faces will any of us recognize by opening day?

Only time will tell.

Go Rams!
