Why "particularly" on man-up? With the core of passers and outside shooters Hopkins has the man-up should be effective - that's not to say someone like a Marquis or H. Chauvette can't contribute.
I know you love to bring out the Gehrig/Pipp story every month or so but unlikely to happen so set your expectations - the upperclassmen are not the Keystone Cops and they have 2-3 years with PM and an extra year with JC. They know the terminology, they know where to go on the field, they know where teammates are going to be more than the freshmen, they won't suffer from any leap in competition potential intimidation. So unlike last year - where Keogh's and DeSimone's departure opened up spots in the mid-field for a bull moose like Collison to come in and seize - that situation does not exist - especially if English is healthy for the entire year. If there is a Collison amongst the Sorichetti/Iler/Rawson etc. they will find a way to the field but unless there's an injury - I don't see anybody getting Pipp'ed.
