Anyone heard how Howard has done/looked so far this spring?
From Ken’s ajc column.Sophomore B-back Jerry Howard has trimmed down, confirming Johnson’s observation earlier in spring practice that he is “leaner, faster, stronger.” Howard said he was around 227 pounds when he arrived and dropped down to 215 after his first preseason camp but said he was still carrying a lot of fat. In the offseason, he got up to 230 but is now down to 210 with nine percent body fat, he said.
From Ken’s ajc columnHoward is competing with Jordan Ponchez-Mason for the No. 2 job behind KirVonte Benson. He ran 23 times for 175 yards and two touchdowns last season. The three have a camaraderie, Howard said.
“We’re all just competing right now,” he said. “Like, every day’s a competition. We’ll talk junk to each other or encourage each other, we even coach each other up and tell what each other needs to do, because it’s what’s best for the team.”
Only insomuchas a 50 caliber FMJ round is a battering ram, anyway.Dude is going to be a battering ram. All of them are.
Definitely.I think you have thread title ptsd from last season.
9% body fat? That's pretty dang low. What's considered normal/healthy for the average Joe?From Ken’s ajc column.

My high school(YCHS) use to get beat by Northwestern a good bit.I'm a big Howard fan. We have the same high school alma mater - hopefully he steamrolls some bitches this fall.
Ah, YCHS. When we played you guys, you were the Green Dragons, one of the better team mascot names IMO. Your field was slippery as hell!My high school(YCHS) use to get beat by Northwestern a good bit.
Sounds like you guys have a potential Heisman stud on your hands.Only insomuchas a 50 caliber FMJ round is a battering ram, anyway.
