Cross Moving to LB?


Recommended Posts

LOL The comments on this board are amazing! somebody throws out some wild statement and within a short period of time it has become gospel according to one of the many disciples and from there, it is used as clear and convincing proof of the existence of forces of nature as of yet unheard of by modern science!

 

 

Back when Cally was getting canned and a new coach acquired, the various boards went through an excessive amount of rumors. Everyone had a secret source. So, I started my own rumor.....about a sandwich. No source but it was nearing that time the McRib comes back out.

 

The @&)$ing sandwich rumor spread.

There are carries for Cross at RB. He'll see the field. Some.

 

And the couple of LBs we have left on the depth chart are most likely way better that Cross would be if he switched positions right now. No way this happens. It's just a message board rumor.

I think Cross should have moved to LB after his Soph year. See if he can rush the passer off the edge. Teach him to do that. It is time to get creative. We need to get athletes on the field. Other players that need to move positions Bush move him to DE and put about 25 lbs on him you are using his athletic ability. Bush could play a lot of spots LB, TE, WR. You could move some of those back up RB to LB. Grant Nabity could play LB or DE. Some of these guys need to decide they want to get on the field. Jeff Mackovica was a 4th string I-back he puts on about 20l lbs and becomes the starting FB on one of the greatest teams ever 1995.

The Mackovica boys were all fullbacks although very capable at being I backs as well EXCEPT for the fact that all of our top 5 I backs ran about 4.4 or LESS L.P. was the 'slowest' of the bunch at 4.4. Joel was about 4.55 and would easily be a starter at I Back or Fullback this year. Joel was the BEST fullback and one of the ten best football players in Husker history in my opinion. The Mackovica boys were tough as nails.

If he is an athlete, put him on the field. Find a spot for him. Sounds like good coaching if that happens. Sounds like what was left here in the cupboard was barish. This is a sign that what we have isn't good enough. What we have has been mislabeled along the way. Find some talent and get it on the field. That talent is doing no good sitting behind 4 other RBs. If the guy can rush the passer at DE, why not try it.

I really don't post stuff just to mess with people...it is just what I heard.

Okay, but now the rest of the story.......you were talking to yourself again, weren't you?

Ha! Of course!!

 

It is actually from a buddy of mine. He gives me some really sweet information and most of the time he tells me I can't post it. This time he was okay with it.
