Any interest at all on our side?

He's got speed, bunch of offers, one of which is Stanford, so one can assume he's a qualifier.

Love how Scout shows, at the top of his page, him running a 4.32 then at the bottom they show his results from a combine he attended showing he runs a 4.66. Come on now that is not even close!

I just don't really understand why the staff is so determined to get another RB this year. If we had been able to sway Bellamy, Lane, Hill, or Morris, I'd be all for taking another RB this year. But why are we going to take Milton or Pickett? I just can't see those guys being good enough to contribute next year over Poole, Neal, or Oku anyway. So why not go get 2 really good backs for 2012 if we can't get an immediate contributor this year? I hope that all of these RBs are just fallback options in case we miss on a lot of the defensive players we're targeting.

I guess it's "In Dooley I Trust" on this one.

Has picked up a lot of interest from WVU.

"He(WVU WR Coach Calloway) came to my school and got some tape. It wasn't long before he let me know he loved it"

He played at my brother's high school this past season. From what I've seen he is well worth the offer. Pickett also has one of the highest GPA's in school.

Any position besides runningback that we could be looking at this guy for? Obviously he's an athlete, I'm just trying to figure out what need he can fill.

Maybe this is what the coaches like. I've watched a little film, he looks really good catching the ball out of the backfield. That's pretty good production, 20 yds/catch. Just trying to be positve.:p

That's a positive thing for sure. As many times as we throw the ball per game, we can use all the receiving threats we can get. It'd be nice to have an effective screen pass in the playbook!
