    Not enough is being made of this 20 lbs gained.....I'm sure it ain't fat!

    -----Wait a second---Aren't you the ANTI-Gautier guy from Abbeville???? LOL ------I will have to get BWK's thoughts on this, but I think H back could be his top place if used in the fashion I have described!!!!

    Why would you have our best pure runner,and one who is about 220 and able to run between the tackles, out at H-Back or Fullback for which we use very little in our offense? This is ridiculous. These other backs may be nice complements but they aren't going to be everydown backs. I'd rather have a big back who runs the ball 20 times per game and catches 3-5 passes a game rather than use him to block and play 20 plays a game.

    Boom boom, it will be very hard to dispute this ... we have 3 VERY capable tight ends that I think any one of will be in the H-back position as well as one of our senior running backs.

    Wouldn't be NEARLY as good at the H back but your point is well taken!!! As Clinton would say--It depends what H back means!!!

    Also remember that Andrew Hebert was moved to H-Back in the spring and I'm assuming will be there in the fall. Alonzo will not be moved nor should he.

    Are you saying you didn't have H-back with her?

    "It depends on what the meaning of the word is is"---An H back IS for me------Big, strong, fast, a great blocker(pass and run), a great receiver, can also run the ball out of certain sets---In fact I think that Harris could be an H-BACK All- American!!!!!
