With problems on the offense side (offensive side too), this may be one too many problem areas.

In the trenches is where games are won and lost and where youth and inexperience are often most evident.

It is not a major concern because it looks like a group with potential and playing time will mature the group before BIG season starts.

By mid season the O line will be much better than last year. There should be some holes to run through. If Newby continues to be tenitive, then Ozibo or Wilbon will take over. There's options that's why I think running game will be good.

NU has plenty of outstanding backs. Coach should use ALL of them according to their own skill sets. Do the "unantici- pated.

I guess since I am on the fence it is not a yes, but it is not really a no either. I wonder more about the line and the blockers who will make those running backs job a bit easier.

I don't think that Reggie Davis is a very good motivator. After having a motivator like Ron Brown it wouldn't surprise me to see a lull in performance until the backs adjust.

It gives the student athlete a transition period. Going from high school to college is a big change. Throw in athletics and it really creates some issues. Let them break in easy a semester early.

Leaving HS early is not enriching the life of a person. Let them "grow up and mature" and enjoy your class friends,
