When a football team has a player returning that had 10 sacks the previous season they have to be optimistic for the upcoming season. Even with those 10 sacks, that player didn't lead the team in that statistic, but junior defensive end Hunter Dimick has the ability to step into the spot left vacant by Cleveland Brown, Nate Orchard.
