I don't have a clue man. I don't want to talk bad about the guy if he is truly willing to play wherever he is needed (and from all the interviews I've seen he has said the right thing). People on here act like they know him (and they may for all I know) are saying that he won't play tailback. Telling someone that they don't have to play a position because they don't want to sends a horrible message to the rest of the team and I hope we haven't done that.

How quickly you guys move on. Just today, I've seen people jump over A. Williams and Nick tiano in favor of freshmen and recruits. Consistently, A. Williams has run the ball well and Mullen just hasn't used him correctly. He gets 4+ yards consistently. If anyone watched him in high school, he carried the ball 30-40 times and got better as the game went on. Mullen has to run him and run him more. And who knows why y'all have passed tiano already for this new guy. Don't trust Mullen that Fitz is our best QB, cause I don't buy it. I do like Gibson, Dear, and this new QB recruit, but I'm not so sure the first 2 should start at RB. However, Dear and Gibson need more touches a game. But Aeris should start and get at least 15-20 carries RTGDFB

A lot of the QB chatter is due to the fact that the "New Guy" is going to probably be the most polished QB we have signed in a long long time. He also already runs a very similar offense albeit a tad more simple than ours. If Tiano was heads above Fitz he would be playing no doubt about it. Especially after we saw all of the young guys get more reps this past week against KY. Not saying Tiano is not our guy just that there is a good chance Thompson comes in and competes immediately for the job especially being an early enrolee.
This is of course assuming the world doesn't end if Mullen is still around.

The Dear dilemma is very simple to solve and utilizes him the best. 50% at slot WR and 50% at RB. Get him 5-10 touches a game in the passing and running game. I've never seen any football player complain about getting the ball too much!

I hope to see Tiano some this weekend.

I sent you a PM. Frankly, I'm getting tired of having to prove my fandom.
