2007 outlook: In only his first year as West Point head coach last, Chris Chambless took the Green Wave to the North State Championship Game. After replacing 15 starters a year ago, however, the task is not quite as formidable this year, but there will still be several key losses to be addressed. While both lines should be solid, the defense took several hits, including DB Jamar Shelton (Southern Miss), LB Kaleb Rush, and NG Xavier Ewing. Shelton was also one of the offensive stars at WR and he will be greatly missed along with starting QB Travis Walker.
