What do you guys think it means "McNeace & Buford's roles will be diff"? Expanded? Asked to contribute more?

I think both will play more, Buford will probably bang less.

Buford reminds me of cam clark role.

its good to hear about Odomes, someone is going to have to score. I dont rly have faith in Lattin yet as an offensive presence but I hope he surprises

All of the above.

As returning players with experience, although limited, McNeace and Buford will be called on to play a bigger role in everything they do this season, including setting a good example for first year players.
