Lance Kelly to Free Safety ?

_ Lance should be good for a few picks.

Great hands.

I sorta kinda think that may very well be part of the thinking here.

Does Lance have any previous experience at safety?

the thing I remember about this kid was a bball photo in the DA -------I think he was going for a rebound with his elbow as high as the rim--the guy can jump!!!!!!!!!

_ Grades have no bearing whatsoever when it comes to practicing. It may prevent one from playing during the season but they can practice all year long.

IMO if Kelly is that great of a playmaker then I am glad to see him move to the definsive side of the ball. We need more playmakers on defense. _

We held out several players last spring due to grades. Coaches wanted them to get their academics in line before they hit the field. These coaches will not allow the players to play without their academic standards being met which means that they can't just practice no matter what they are doing in the classroom.

I'd prefer to see him at receiver. These Juco's better be good because there's nobody on the depth chart to date besides possibly these guys who are necessarily better than Kelley at WR. We need a guy who runs excellent routes, has good hands and has decent size and he has these qualities.

I'm pretty psyched to see him move to FS. He's a great athlete and has good hands, we need some of that on defense.

Does anyone know if he is getting or has gotten a medical red shirt from that broken stick he suffered last year?

He has used his RS up, in '07

I dont think that applies. You can still get a medical hardship redshirt. I think it has to be less than 10% of games played and I don't think he falls in that category. I could be wrong.

Not sure of the percentage for a medical redshirt but he broke it in the 2nd game of the year.
