With A&M's first practice in pads two days away, Liucci takes a brief look at the three salient points facing each position group in the early going. Which storylines are in the works, and who must prove their worth?

The Aggies finally returned to the field on Saturday and TexAgs Studios returned to the sideline, capturing the work of new quarterbacks coach Jake Spavital and his protégés, Johnny Manziel among them, in action.
