Not bad at all.  Jones might be "the" back this year.

Jones & McFadden are the next Cadillac and Ronnie Brown.  Can't wait to see them tear it up all year

Only bright spot yesterday were the freshman tailbacks.

You're kidding, right?

He must be kidding.  I was there.  Jones and McFadden both looked good, but Hillis is THE man.  He was as dominating as he was in high school and definitely looked a step faster than he was last year.  Our O-line was good, our db's were mostly good, but I am not really too optimistic, overall.  I think Mustain will be starting by the second game of next season, if he really is the real deal.  MO-State had the best QB on the field, and we need one badly.  Hopefully, RJ will get some things worked out in the next week or two, but we did not execute the passing game very well IMHO.

Jones should start until Hillis shows he can hold onto the ball. Howard's numbers are deceptive--he was clearly the #4 back for UA Saturday.

I remember Ken Hatfield drawing up a punt return play on the chalkboard with Paul Eels during a TV show in the 80s. He talked about the 2 gunner blockers, the return man and the 9 guys who rush the punter and then run back to block. I couldn't help but note that we'd be much more successful on most plays if we used 12 players.

Having a four-headed RB might be the trick. Then again, it could be like that 3-headed monster in Monty Python's Holy Grail that only argued with itself.

Hillis definitly has gotten amother gear over the summer.  When he foung the hole ,he lit it up.  If there was anyone in the way, he ran through them.   I loved watchig him at full back also.  He can flat a"lay da smack down"  .  Felix looked very fast and shifty.  He almost moves out of his own shoes.  McFadden got mop up in 4th quarter, but had a good game behind the 2nd team o-line.  I think Howard had better turned it on very soon or we won't even see him in the post game interviews...
Just can't help smiling these days!!!

LEFT HEAD: Oh quick get the sword out I want to cut his head off!

RIGHT HEAD: Oh, cut your own head off!

MIDDLE HEAD: Yes, do us all a favor!

LEFT HEAD: What?

RIGHT HEAD: Yapping on all the time.

MIDDLE HEAD: You're lucky, you're not next to him.

LEFT HEAD: What do you mean?

MIDDLE HEAD: You snore.

LEFT HEAD: Oh I don't -- anyway, you've got bad breath.

MIDDLE HEAD: Well its only because you don't brush my teeth.

RIGHT HEAD: Oh stop bitching and let's go have tea.

LEFT HEAD: All right all right all right we'll kill him first
and then have tea and biscuits.

MIDDLE HEAD: Yes.

RIGHT HEAD: Oh, but not biscuits.

LEFT HEAD: All right all right not biscuits, but lets kill him
anyway.

One of Hillis's fumbles clearly was  a helmet square on the ball type deals which 9/10 times is gonna come out.

Two fumbles in a game, I don't care if it's Barry Sanders getting run over by a dump truck, are inexcusable.

Hillis HAS to hold on to the ball.  Period.  He had problems with it last year, which I think a lot of us (at least I know I did) chalked up to him "getting used to playing college ball." 

The running game is all this team has, and they absolutely CANNOT afford a bunch of fumbles.
