Ur first sentence makes me think of Tom Smith.. He was lowering the boom in the spring game.. I think we will see a big difference in our backs this season with them actually being coached this year.

I think Bonner, Bowles, Bourque, Howard, and Mcniel are all on the same level but Patterson may be the best of the bunch.

I think everyone is overreacting about his size, or lack of actually. Dude has awesome videos. I don't think he'll start, or even be in the top 3. But I do seem him seeing the field in some capacity.

I agree. Bourque would have been at LSU right now if it wasn't for Jeremy Hill. If LSU wants a RB like they wanted Bourque, I'll take it.

I know early on in our recruitment of Bourque there were some questions on if he would qualify, as things stand right now Bourque is on track to fully qualify & be here in June.

He got off the weights some after he was sick so he could take care of his school work.

No. He was going to get his shot at RB. He's just like Blue.
