If I remember correctly Stanford had a player a few years ago play like FB and LB or something like that. Not something you see often but I suppose not completely without precedent
I'm guessing you're thinking of Miles Jack from UCLA; played both LB and RBIf I remember correctly Stanford had a player a few years ago play like FB and LB or something like that. Not something you see often but I suppose not completely without precedent
nope it was a Stanford player that I am remembering. Wasn't a standout but he played significant snaps on one side and like 40% of snaps on the otherI'm guessing you're thinking of Miles Jack from UCLA; played both LB and RBIf I remember correctly Stanford had a player a few years ago play like FB and LB or something like that.

Have yet to watch him play live but just watching film I thought he should be a LB. Now with our move to a 3-4 I think he definitely starts there.I'd be curious what he weighs now. I'm a big fan but he just seemed to be big and kind of slow at Heartland Hoops. Or perhaps I should say not particularly quick as opposed to slow.
Maybe it's just because basketball isn't really his sport but watching him play then watching Austin Allen later Allen just moved so much better - and Allen is taller.
Just kind of makes me wonder what position he'll fit bet.
