Not much going on in spring drills, except Sherman's announcement that J-Train "will have to adapt to being a fullback in the new offense." WHAT? Was this known? Did I miss the memo? This switch is breezed over in the article, so it seems Brain Davis of the D-Morn didn't think it was a huge deal. I think it is a big deal. Our featured back for the last three years gets demoted. First Shermi says he needs to loose weight, now he is a blocker. I want to know what the big guy thought of the switch. I want to know if he went to the sideline, batted down a water bottle, and cried... again.

Now this is stupid.
He has been the most consistent running threat for several years. Now he is going to be a blocking back.

When will we go back to the 3-4? When will we go back to having a running attack that has to be accounted for?

I had hope for Sherman, but this is perplexing.

instead of a power game he must want to go with a fleet-speed game...a ton of speed will be on campus this year...not that this is wrong...only a guess...
