Lets not take away from what we do have in 2012. Good teams become great teams by graduating good guys and replacing them with better guys. I think that is what our coaches are doing now. Gooooo Clemson Tigersssss!!!

Before ACL in HS, Boyd was ranked a top dual-threat QB.

After the ACL injury, Boyd played with a brace, his HS offense changed to accomodate the injury, and he was listed as a top pro-style QB. The guy can run, and if you'd watched Morris use QB GJ Kinne at Tulsa, you'd see that Morris has some great plays to get QBs running room.

Makes me feel good that the defense was great, considering all I have heard 104.9 over the last few weeks. Way to got to Brent! Dr. Leisure

Or maybe Morris is willing to run Boyd due to backup quality
Aug 12, 2012, 12:06 PM
|
|
At Tulsa Morris ran his QB, GJ Kinne a lot when needed but the QB was always a threat to run and it kept the defenses honest, making Tulsa's offense work really well. I think due to the lack of a quality backup QB, last season Morris rarely ran Boyd, and Boyd rarely ran on his own. It was quite different from the dual-threat-QB offense that Morris ran at Tulsa. With Stoudt more experienced and Kelly onboard, I've been wondering if Morris would get back to his Tulsa-style, dual-threat-QB offense. To me, it still seems risky for 2012 but with an experienced Kelly in 2013, I'll bet we'll see a lot more QB runs in 2013.

thought the following from your article: 1. DJ howard's showing-he is a must 2. that the defense impressed is no surprise-must keep it up 3. the high goals are coming from the players-very good

It sounds like Townsend should start, but come the Auburn, they will start one of the LB's from last year ahead him b/c of bullcrap politics. I don't care who about being a good practice guy and knowing all the plays. I want LB's that are physically capable of making plays in the backfield and chasing people down.

lol....isn't Anthony starting?

How about the punter, sounds like he's got it locked up. I believe we have a safety/lb first year frosh that's starting.
What exactly has happened that suggests if LT should be starting he won't? Sounds like he had a great day....doesn't mean he didn't also have the broken coverages that gave up the big plays either.
But if you are just hell bent on getting upset over it, knock yourself out.
