| Once Marlin and other backs get their coaching from Jay Graham, they will improve a lot..It might take a few years before our running game is back to where it was in 90s but until then we can pass it like crazy with our Bray/Hunter/Patterson combo..(I predict DaRick to be out of team before next season starts) | |

Now am I saying that he is going to blow it up this year because of that? No, not exactly...but I hope he does, and that is certainly a big difference of a year. | |

| Yep, looking forward to seeing an older wiser stronger Lane running behind an older wiser stronger OL, and coached by Jay Graham.

I also think bar injury he was better than T.Poole last season.. | I hope JG can coach him to run faster and not get run down from behind. If he can improve his speed, he will be outstanding; if he can't, he will be average. | |
