I miss the Goose being Loose

and holding up 3 fingers after beating the mutts in 2000.

One of the things that frustrated me about CPJ's scheme is that we never found a way to market the AB to the NFL. I wish we could've gotten them more passes to demonstrate their ability as slot WRs. However, there's no denying that we still had a solid stable of them.

13 of them or so I’ve been told

It's bizarre that we couldn't sell recruits on a run-heavy, option-based offense as a road to the NFL, given how often we rushed the ball. But NFL RBs have to pass-block and we didn't do nearly enough of that to get the guys that kind of experience.

If I recall, he played A-back some when Dwyer was still here in 2009.

Allen played A-Back in 09

Wrong. B-Back.

 

[Diseqc]

Wrong. B-Back.

Yes… but he lined up as an a-back too

 

[QuadF]

Wrong. B-Back.

Wrong. Aback in 09, Bback in 10.



In order of appearance in the video:
at aback - 09 clemson game, 09 fsu game, 09 unc game, 09 jax st

at bback - 10 duke, 10 uva, 10 duke, 10 ncst, 10 KU, 10 intro

 

[Jacketzrus]

Wrong. B-Back.

He played b back

But the year before that, he played a back because Dwyer was here.

Accept the egg on your face, let it go, and let's move on.

I miss

Thanks for putting my picture up - 9 rows down from the right edge of the scoreboard. What a day!

I've been watching some old highlights and I am seeing a lot of good players I really enjoyed watching play A-Back.

Guys like:
Anthony Allen
Roddy Jones
Orwen Smith
Clinton Lynch
Qua Searcy
Robby Godhigh

And although he was a qb, I do miss seeing Jacob Eason throw to our guys.

The toss sweep to Luke Cox was 100% gauranteed for 2 yards.

I'd also add Embry Peeples.

we had run into John Dewberry the night before. We had a damn good time.

Give me Joe Ham, Dez White, Kerry Watkins, Charlie Rogers, Chris Reis, and Joe Burns over any A backs.
