Outlook: Otay Ranch is poised to use their experience on the offensive line to control the line of scrimmage this fall. The Mustangs will be relying on Shannon Daniels at RB and a plethora of returners on the O-line to take pressure off of an inexperienced new QB. Emmanuel Luera and Taylor Moore will be leading a strong D-line. Newcomers Brian Rodriguez and Juan Leary will be expected to fill slots at the skill positions. This program has had a very good run in league play, not having lost more than 1 game since 2004.
