So long as we have Skov, Howell, Thomas^2, and Masifilo, I like to think we'll be at least adequate on defense.  Coaching is certainly a question mark.

We don't have a lot of returning starters, but they're all rock-solid.  I can only count one player (Bademosi) who didn't receive all-Pac 10 accolades:

Martin
DeCastro
Fleener
Taylor (+the stable)
Luck

Masifilo
Skov
Thomas
Thomas III
Howell
Bademosi
