I'd be willing to put money down that Fitzgerald will take carries away from KK. Still, KK will be #1, and I can't help but believe that he'll have a more productive year with some balance from the passing game.

And I know Massey wants to start from Day 1. This fall is going to be EXTREMELY interesting from a fan standpoint.

I'm most interested to see how the offensive line shapes up. Dying to see how everybody looks once the hittin' starts.

I'm curious to see how the handling of Richuel Massey (play vs. redshirt) affects the recruiting of his brother.

you ought to factor in as well Bennett's past stated policy that he doesn't believe in alternating RBs too much. He stated last year on several occassions that he prefers to go with his best RB as a workhorse-I disagree with that policy completely and think that it adversely affects the team in the 4th Q. Give me mulitiple quality RBs and use them all just like Pony Express I and II. SMU owned their oppoenents in large part due to depth in the 1980s.

I agree with a small stable, but not the CAVAN-esque alternating of RBs like the LaTech game in Shreveport...where he used 5 RBs and also a seldom used Sr. RB and he up and fumbled, putting the game further out of reach...

Disagree with Stallion - Dickerson would have won the Heisman and we would have won the national championship if Dickerson had gotten the carries he deserved - he was by far the best and the split of time cost us dearly
