Marcus Freeman returns QB CJ Carr (138, Freshman All-America award floor) for his sophomore year alongside All-American CB Leonard Moore (129), Freshman All-American S Tae Johnson (109), and senior CB Christian Gray (102, 6 career INTs). LBs Drayk Bowen (91) and Jaylen Sneed (91) anchor the defense. The OL is young (Black 33, Knapp/Jagusah 49), freshman P Jasper Scaife has no stats, and RB depth is thin — but the secondary is elite and Carr's 2026 development defines the season.
