Three reasons, all of which work with each other:
(1) Rhett Lashlee- it all starts with the OC, and I am CONFIDENTLY optimistic that this new offensive system is going to be a "night-and-day" contrast to the shit show that was Enos' offensive system last year. Frankly, I think that Harley is going to have more than 1,000 receiving yards, Cam will be around 900 rushing yards, and Brevin will between 900-1000 receiving yards with 10-12 TDs. When Rhett was hired as OC, I psoted a thread about SMU's TE Kylen Granson's story, and how he had a remarkable turnaround under Rhett Lashlee. I strongly suggest taking a look at that thread again.

(2) D'Eriq King- having a spread offensive system is fundamental to the skill players' success, but right there with that is having a smart, athletic, experienced QB who can deliver the football at the right time, with the right trajectory, and with the right velocity. King is not an elite thrower, but is a good thrower, and combined with his leadership, athleticism, and overall experience playing in a competitive, quality American Athletic Conference, gives someone like Brevin Jordan the change to maximize his production, especially down in the redzone.
(3) Other Solid Skill Players- having solid skill players around Brevin will require opposing defenses to stay more honest more of the time, and having attention on more than one guy. Cam is a homerun threat, Harley can make plays, and there are younger guys who are likely to emerge over the course of the season. Also, Will Mallory is a good TE himself.
So, looking at all three of these things together, I think that our offense will obviously be much better, and that naturally means that individual players will be more productive. That said, I think Brevin is going to have a MONSTER year for us, especially since he is most likely to declare early for the NFL, and will want to have his draft stock as high as possible.
