I meant I'm not ready to hand Homan a 38 jersey...he could end up at TE, DE or LB just as easily...and with only one scholarship FB on the roster next year (assuming Olson is in fact done) I don't see any problem with taking two fullbacks this year, especially if one nets us an All-B10 LG. |

Zach may have been blowing a smoke screen, but in his recent BN interview he kinda minimized the idea that he and his bro would be attending the same school. Something to the effect that it would be really cool, but that they haven't really talked about it.
Now, I'll be the first to admit that I never thought Zach would get an offer, but now that it's come, it seems from Zach perspective, that it's not related to his bro at all.

No thanks. I'd much rather trust my own judgement as a person who hasn't played the game in 20 years and has never coached or formally been involved in talent judgement. My skills are far superior in my own mind.

If they cater the offense to Pryor, would we even see a fullback on the field all that often?

OK, I know that we will not be running the RR spread, but I do recall WVU having some pretty nice fullbacks recently. So, I'm sure you could have a fullback involved in play that would be tailored to Pryor. But then again, I think the style of play will be tailored to the QB talent we have and the QB talent will be tailored to style of play the coaches want...which is something in the middle.
If we have good fullbacks, they'll see the field if for nothing more than to pave the way. Although I have to admit I'd love to see a FB like Brandon Joe motoring down the field some too.
