The Vikings return 15 starters from their 2007 team. This is the 4th year of consistent game strategies and schemes, so Coach Steve Zenk expects a greater team coherence and success. Watch Micahel Ramos QB, Mark Ramos RB/DB, Bobby Bautista RB, Tony Zamora OL and Donte Mosely WR to have a deep impact on the 2008 team.
