Pigeonholing a football team like Wake Forest based on previous performance would be short-sighted. It’s been easy over the years to simply synopsize but now it’s approaching fool-hardy to not do your homework. We can all agree that NIL and the Transfer Portal have flipped college football on it’s head. There’s still some lack of equality but plenty of room for the creative.

Cam Lemons Debro of 247’s Demon Deacon Digest joins Will and Jim to provide a preview of how Wake Forest football has and is changing. It starts with a new head coach, new schemes, new players and a mindset that eagerly wraps it’s arms around the changes to the game and embraces them. That means there will be some obvious changes in what opponents and fans see on the field.

Cam talks with Will about some of the subtle and not-so-subtle nuisances that former Washington State coach Jake Dickert brings to the Demon Deacons. Find out what personnel are filling out the roster, where the strengths are and the new looks on offense and defense. Some of these will make you lift your eyebrow a time or two.

What does Debro think about this year’s schedule? It’s always a perilous journey when projecting wins and losses but we think you’ll find a straight-forward and honest assessment of what this team can do.
