As Baylor football approaches the start of the season, the team has announced its projected offensive starters following the second week of fall camp. This announcement is significant for fans in Howe, Texas, as the team gears up for its first game.

DJ Lagway will take on the role of starting quarterback, with coaches commending his performance since joining the squad. Lagway expressed confidence in the offensive system crafted by Jake Spavital, which is expected to enhance his abilities on the field.

Dawson Pendergrass is anticipated to be the starting running back. After missing last season, Pendergrass looks to make a notable impact, having previously recorded more than 670 rushing yards and six touchdowns during his first two seasons. His physical style and pass-catching skills are expected to be valuable assets.

The wide receiver lineup is expected to include Louis Brown IV and Dre'lon Miller. Brown, who has experience with Colorado State and San Diego State, is seen as a primary deep threat. Miller, a former top recruit, demonstrated versatility at Colorado, playing both as a receiver and in a hybrid role.

Gavin Freeman, coming from Oklahoma State, is likely to take on the slot receiver position, known for his speed and agility, potentially making him a key player in short routes.

Tony Livingston, who has spent two years at Florida, will be the tight end, bringing experience as both a blocker and a pass catcher to support Lagway.

The offensive line will feature Logan Moore as left tackle, Nate Kibble as left guard, and Koltin Sieracki at center, with Asher Hale at right guard. Moore, a junior transfer from UAB, is expected to protect Lagway's blindside, while Kibble, a sophomore transfer from Texas, and returning player Sieracki will be crucial for the line's effectiveness.

Further details about the right tackle position remain to be confirmed.
