Guess this means he is going to stick at RB since Cy Jones already has #5 on defense or he's not planning to play at all on defense this year.
I like this statement. That would be a good sign.Could mean the young safeties are progressing well too.
could be, but have they even done anything outside of the conditioning program yet?Could mean the young safeties are progressing well too.
honestly don't know, but I always thought the early enrollees didn't go through anything until they'd finished their first round of the 4th quarter program. Even then, the coaches can't participate so it would be hard for them to have gained a lot of confidence in the EE's now.I thought there were doing some 7 on 7 drills on their own, along with 4th quarter conditioning and lifting weight as well. .... No?
Curious - where did you find the article? He's listed at 215 on the updated spring roster.found an article from last summer that said he'd bulked up to over 225 due to the strength program. According to his HS coach, 'Bama wanted him to stay under 218 to play FS, so that didn't happen. at 225 I could see him more as an RB as well, or even an LB, but LB would be out for this year also since Jones wears #5 on defense.
has anyone heard about how he's coming along after his injury last year?
Landon Collins came in at the Combine around 228 lbs. I wouldn't read too much into weight gain/loss. too early to tell where Clark will end up at.found an article from last summer that said he'd bulked up to over 225 due to the strength program.

and Collins was an SS not an FS. I wasn't reading into it at all, that's what his HS coach said Bama told them the plan was IF he stayed under a certain weight. Here are the direct quotes from the article and a link (McKeller is his HS coach):Landon Collins came in at the Combine around 228 lbs.

yes I was aware of LC being a SS. my point was weight gain/loss doesn't always indicate position changes.and Collins was an SS not an FS.
Methinks Bo will be carrying the ball, not blocking for someone else who is.I believe there is going to be an open tryout for a position I call "Fowler". It's a combination of RB/TE/FB/Whatever.
Qualifications are that you be large, strong, nasty running the ball yet have the hands and acrobatic athletisism of lynn swann, You have to enjoy de-cleating people on lead blocks or from the H-Back spot and have little to no interest in "stats" but have every interest in winning and getting to the NFL
I think Bo Scarborough and Ronnie Clark and possibly DeSherrius Flowers will get a look to see who can cut it.
