As was moving a white linebacker named Zach Line to running back. Give me a break. That was a clear failure despite multiple conference rushing titles and a promising NFL career. June Jone is stupid. You are right. He is stupid.

Again Mr. Good Cop-very little similiarity in that Zach Line lead the entire state of Michigan in rushing I believe in High School, did not weigh 297 pounds , did not waste eligibility playing another position, and did not make a change in Game 9 of the season. Very likely we have put another one dimensional recruit at RB rather than recruit RBs who both block and run as well as catch passes out of the backfield like for example Baylor's first, second and third string RBs. Our leading rusher at RB has less than 200 yards rushing on the season and that limits the offense

The answer is giving Nlemchi more touches, NOT a 297lb converted NT

Niemchi has not had enough touches in any game to prove his worth. Even ED had some bad quarters but over the long term did rather well.

Good Cop-you aren't commenting on the topic-you're just brow-beating-why don't you comment on the RB position if you disagree

Disagree with what? I've never known a guy who just invents his own conversations more than you.

My guess is that NR is in there to give USF something to think about in goal line situations which given our struggles is not a bad thing.

And in the process being a smart @ss.

This coach, who admittedly has clear and real problems on the trail among other deficiencies, has put at least twelve Mustangs in the NFL. I like that he thinks outside the box. I like that he does what he does.

Kelvin Beachum (G) of the Pittsburgh Steelers
Richard Crawford (CB) of the Washington Redskins
Josh LeRibeus (G) of the Washington Redskins
Bryan McCann (CB) of the Oakland Raiders
Sterling Moore (CB) of the Dallas Cowboys
Thomas Morstead (P) of the New Orleans Saints
Aldrick Robinson (WR) of the Washington Redskins
Emmanuel Sanders (WR) of the Pittsburgh Steelers
Taylor Thompson (DE) of the Tennessee Titans
Cole Beasley (WR) of the Dallas Cowboys
Margus Hunt (DE) of the Cincinnati Bengals
Zach Line (FB) of the Minnesota Vikings

Why are you so angry, can't you at least argue your point without the immature response? I was not trying to be a smart ... as you stated. June Jones has said, "we do what we do." It was my response to those that are asking why the coaching staff is trying out a defensive lineman at running back.

Outside the box thinking: trying your DE (T. Thompson) as a TE, because you didn't recruit one and your red zone offense sucks...we are so lucky!
