Prescott Line to be moved all over the field according to Morris.

I remember watching Clemson highlites after Morris was hired and noticed how they used a back a little taller than Line and thinking Line could contribute in that role. FB/HB lead blocker or in tight formations. There is even a play where they line up a B/HB a step behind the Guard/Tackle spot and utilize him in a number of ways especially in a loaded blocking formation. Interested how this turns out

That's a lot of Freshman to play...if it really is as many as 15 I might retract/rethink my W/L prediction. Just too many mistakes with that many young guys.

Least experienced SMU football team since Forrest Gregg's first season in 1989?

Seems like that was the case even during the Mike Cavan error.

Bill Nichols has not written anything in a while. He might be on a golf assignment. Glad EJ is blogging or SMU might not have gotten any media exposure in the DMN.

Here is another blog by EJ.

With our o-line woes I am sure Line will be called on to help out with the blocking schemes most of the time.
