Posted: Mon Jan 15, 2007 2:58 pmRan into and talked with Charlie Berry yesterday.
He has been cleared to return and will, indeed, be back this spring.
He stated he currently weighs 288 lbs. and he is very excited to be back with his teammates and looking forward to a great season next fall.
Welcome back CB...we need you at DT.

Posted: Mon Jan 15, 2007 3:34 pmnope.....CB said he is in the best condition of his life. He certainly does not look like 288 lbs.
CB had just worked out at the Premier Club.

Posted: Mon Jan 15, 2007 4:31 pmi just looked at that roster, and it is so out of date. for example, smu sid has demyron martin listed at 215, he weighed 235 during last summer!
Posted: Mon Jan 15, 2007 5:35 pmmaybe he ought to be playing at 215. Hard to tell because of the injury but I am always skeptical of claims that a RB gained 20-25 pounds and "didn't lose a step" . Happens all the time-they decide later "well maybe he did".
Posted: Mon Jan 15, 2007 10:46 pmIf this news of Berry being focused, and in the best condition of his life is true, than this is very good news! He is an experienced fifth year senior, and can help while these young pups are being brought along.
Posted: Mon Jan 15, 2007 11:33 pmthis is why we need a strength and conditioning program that is position specific... the WR/DB's should not be doing the same weight work out that the OL/DL are doing.Stallion wrote:maybe he ought to be playing at 215.

Posted: Tue Jan 16, 2007 2:47 pm97-02 We had indiviualized workouts, ol/dl had different workouts than the "skill guys". Oh well, lets see what Vic can do with them now!!! I think they should all get Stallion tatoos on their biceps!!!

Posted: Tue Jan 16, 2007 8:37 pmBrandon Jones and Charlie Berry's return will certainly help next year.
Posted: Tue Jan 30, 2007 9:36 amJones' return will be a huge boost to the secondary, especially after losing Sturdivant. When Tech came in a couple of years ago, he knocked away two would-be touchdowns, and if he can bring that kind of speed and timing and ball skills -- whether it's at CB or safety -- the secondary might not have as much of a dropoff as many of us fear.
Posted: Tue Jan 30, 2007 12:00 pmIf the secondary has a drop-off after last year.. this team is in serious trouble! I've never seen a team give up so much..
They can't get worse.. can they? They're experienced.. granted at giving up yards.. but at least they're experienced at something.
