Preseason Poll Projection: 10th
Outlook: A new era begins in Carlisle as Fordyce takes over as head coach. He welcomes back a dual-threat QB in Burger who produced nearly 2,000 yards of total offense a year ago. His favorite target is back in Walbert who snared 41 balls with four TDs. Whoever takes over as the premier ballcarrier will look to run behind Rebisz who started all 10 games last season. Eight starters are back in the fold on defense, led by Minicozzi. Turner and Heisey are experienced LBs, while all four members of the secondary return, led by Dettloff who had three picks. Dickinson may not be ready to return to championship glory but will make major steps forward in 2017.
