How strong? Too strong?
Well, no team can be too strong up front, but Mountain View has a problem every coaching staff would love to have in any given season.
The Thunder have too many quality linemen.
The Thunder return all five starters from the offensive line that produced an average of 400 yards of offense per game last year, plus they have a few younger guys who are destined to shine. While nothing is official in terms of the starting lineup for the 2015 season, it is clear that center Chris Mitchell, left guard Isaiah Carbajal, and left tackle Ethan Tonder will anchor one scary group of big guys.
The Thunder totaled more than 2,500 yards on the ground last year. Preston Jones, who led the region in rushing with 1,351 yards in eight games, is back, as well.
That will make for a scary combination for any opposing team to try to slow.
