“Here’s a bold and aggressive prediction. Sure, Hunter Bishop is gone, but Spencer Torkelson, Trevor Hauver, Alika Williams and Gage Workman return to power a scary offense. And when you have Boyd Vander Kooi leading a pitching staff full of returners and stud transfer Tyler Thornton, it seems like a run may be in order.”
