oh Bow will play. I said in another thread that we like to rotate backs yet never ride the hot hand but by all accounts, Bow has been our most explosive back in fall camp

Yet he's listed as 4th or 5th string. Hmmmm......

Got a couple buddies from South Carolina (Clemson fans) that said Bowman has a lot of upside but seems to be somewhat lazy or even uninterested in doing the "dirty work" of an every down back. Not sure if you have heard that too from some of the practice reports from fall camp at UF and that is reflecting in the depth chart. I have no doubt he plays either. He's too good to keep off the field, but I wonder if it's the same thing I heard from them when he was at Clemson, can't trust him yet. You would know better than I would.

for whatever reason, the staff is caught up on making sure the backs are top notch “pass blockers and pass catchers blah blah blah” as oppose to letting your talent speak for itself and as a staff, get em on the field and put him in position to succedd

Well it’s the day 3 AI update (after Ida) and about to run out of gas and none in site…..BUT…heading to my nephews house who has a house generator and will stay there until we get juice back.The electric company is working in the area so hopefully it will only be a day or two before we get power back.

But thats the good news around here.I’m hearing it may be weeks before the New Orleans area is restored so we are a lot luckier than they are.Goes to the old saying my Grandpa told me years ago.”The man cried he had no shoes til he saw the man who had no feet”…In layman’s term it just means there’s ALWAYS someone worse off than you so don’t ***** about your situation.

well this ends the day 3 AI update…

Stay safe, my man.
And if you should happen to see a wild gator crossing a flooded roadway while in your car, you know what to do!

I tried to make this case when people were begging for Lingard to get in the field here. Look, not every back is a good blocker but you have to at least make the effort. Otherwise as soon as you come into the game I’m selling out to stop the run since you never pass protect
