I remember at the two minute mark all the field steps were covered by multiple police officers and we thought we wouldn't get to rush the field, only to realize they just wanted the clock to hit zero first.<br /><br />Probably the only time I'll ever see a police officer dance with a college kid.

Even in high school, he had incredible vision and football sense that allowed him to see holes before they opened. He's never been overly big or fast, so that vision allowed him to be a high yardage runner.<br /><br />As we all know, he will give us 100% on each down. The guy is as strong and fast as his body will allow, but we know that isn't enough. He will probably not break alot of tackles, but he will not shy away from hits. He's tough like his dad and Hope loves guys who play hard. He'll be a workhorse. <br /><br />I know he's not the ideal choice, but I do believe he is the card we have to play right now.PWShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15640288015308398927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36696801.post-80376455789465889942010-08-25T09:32:51.956-04:002010-08-25T09:32:51.956-04:00I'm sorry, Dierking is a good kid, strong and ...I'm sorry, Dierking is a good kid, strong and tries hard, but he's just not the guy we need in the backfield. We need someone that can cut in between tackles, make a move in the open field and then have that burst to make big gains. Ralph was it, and I don't think ATM even is the guy. If you ask me, Pegram looked like our best option. Dierking is a good fullback, pass blocker and can recieve quite well, but he's not the every down back we need to be competitive. The bubble screens and short pass game just won't cut it in conference play. We have to have a between the tackles runner to complement our mix of offense (which I LOVE by the way) of one down being 5 WR's and the next down I-formation. For that to work, we need a dynamic runner with toughness AND breakaway speed.BoilerUpAThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18084580966025115805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36696801.post-37719014066912978952010-08-25T09:09:03.553-04:002010-08-25T09:09:03.553-04:00Oops.

I love that the alpha dog feels his whole pack can run with him. And for such a stud receiver to be so pumped about "taking heads off" run blocking? Awesome.<br /><br />I also thought that all our boys spoke very intelligently in their interviews. Impressed by that as well.<br /><br />Choo choo, won't be long now.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01095933842857822154noreply@blogger.com
