With Dave Clawson taking over the offense, how much different do those guys look?
EB: I see a lot of new stuff. This summer, while we were doing our individual stuff, they had a lot of crazy stuff in there. If you pick something to do (defending it), you're going to be wrong regardless. That's the thing I've picked up on. I might break on one route, and the wide receiver is turning it into something else and now I'm mad because I was covering this route and thought I had it and he's turning it into something else ... and I'm (peeved).
Do you want to play on special teams this year?
EB: Yeah, I want to block for Dennis Rogan (on punt returns). That's our goal this year. We want to get Rogan to the house. I told him, 'We're going to take care of the other stuff. You've just got to get past the punter this year.' I joke with him about that all the time. He'll shake DBs and make a linebacker miss, but he gets to the punter and freezes up. I'm like, 'Rogan, come on, man.'
Maybe it's just me but for a young man to admit his fears, it shows his confidence. He sounds like a well rounded confident yet self aware player. Too much cockyness if you ask me in a player is talking himself into being tough hiding fear and insecurity, and If I'm an O coordinator reading this interveiw I'm thinking hmm....uh-oh.Scared of horses?
What will he do against Wyoming?![]()
