Tight Ends/Fullbacks Coach Mario Acitelli
“Although we lost two proven and experienced players with the graduation of tight end Bo Revell and two-time all-conference fullback Darnell Laws, I'm confident in the group's ability to perform well this season. We have a solid corps of returners, and we will focus our efforts on developing depth as we progress towards the fall.”
