* DEPTH CHARTS were only designed as a simplistic
gauge for listing players that departed and players that
received the most playing experience (consistent starters).
NationalChamps.net recognizes the importance of missing
personnel data not listed such as redshirts, transfers,
injuries, incoming recruits, back ups, and alternates.
Their coverage will begin with our full 2004 Preseason
Preview due out this coming spring. |

QUICK
ANALYSIS
|
So
the MAC gets two teams into the preseason Top
25? Yes, they have earned it. With that said,
Toledo likely represents the next MAC team in
line (after Miami OH) as gunner Bruce Gradkowski
returns to call the signals from his QB position
after throwing for over 3700 yards in just his
sophomore year. His receivers remain in tact,
as well. But there is plenty more to be excited
about for the Rockets. A great RB in 1000-yard
rusher Trinity Dawson returns, as does a wide
array of mid-major All-American candidates. Toledo
placed six players on the All-MAC 2003 team, and
four of those players return. TE Andrew Clarke
and OT Nick Kaczur represent two future NFL picks,
and the defense, led by Brock Dodrill, should
add just enough fuel to send these Rockets into
Mid-American orbit.
