Mike Says:The Indians will be challenged to continue their success this year with only 8 starters coming back. QB Baker will be one to watch this year as will be WR/DB Poncho. Look for them to go 7-3 or 8-2 in the regular season and win the district championship. There region is pretty tough with San Augustine, Alto, and Mart so they should only go 2 or 3 rounds in the playoffs.

Chris Says: Price Carlisle is not bringing a lot back but their gunner, quarterback Gunner Baker should put on a show and greatly help lead an inexperienced offense. I am not sure they are ready to go too far come playoff time, but a district title is well within their reach this year.
