Sorry for the delay between posts

Technical difficulties prevented me from posting yesterday.

Today's news......

Jorvorskie Lane says he wants to rush for 1,000 yds and 24 TDs this season. If Lane keeps his weight down, and Fran gives him the necessary number of carries, especially in short yardage and goal-to-go, Lane can make those numbers.

Fran is 'intrigued' by true freshman safety Billy Chavis. At 6'5, 231 lbs, Chavis' size and the hitting ability he's displayed so far in practice have Fran touting him early. At that size, he sounds like a true OLB for a 3-4 defense, although we'll never run that.
I just don't want Fran to get cute, and do something that screws up the kid's development.

Fran is going to design some plays specifically for Jerrod Johnson. While this may cause some fans to overflow with optimism about the possibilities with Johnson and McGee in the same backfield, I'm fairly certain we're just talking about a few inside zone plays for a goal-line package. If we actually use Johnson like Florida used Tim Tebow in the 'Tim series' last season, I'll be pleasantly surprised.
