Agreed, he showed great potential last spring/fall camps when subbed in.

I know JLM isn’t Mariani, so forgive me the comparison, but I think Bobby/Rosey are going to feature a game breaker like JLM where they can. I think he plays significantly more disciplined within the offense & special teams.
Agreed, I put a post up before (I'd have to go back and find it) where I put up the annual stats of the smaller/slot WR in Bobby's offenses the last time he was here, it was pretty good numbers most years. I'd assume a guy as talented as JLM is going to be put all over the field as much as possible. Having him on PR and maybe KR duty only makes sense. Look at the NAU game last year, devoid of a real offense Jerry helped win that game in a major way.
Also haha on the Brent post, as a Packer fan always makes me think of this:

I’m pretty sure Stitt gave JLM the freedom to run southwest/southeast as much as he wanted to. Be interesting to see if the new regime gives him that freedom.

Hauck asked if he would be willing to do it because he wanted to take advantage of his athleticism and he needs two good TE’s. Hill said whatever I can do to help us get home to Texas, I’ll do it. Have heard that Hauck has really taken a liking to how hard Hill is going at it in winter conditioning. Have heard good things about team with Hauck so far.....
Well, considering how much shit that kid took here on eGriz after his sideline behavior last year this is refreshing to see...he just moved up a notch in my book.
I hear you, but three things:
1. If the fans knew the details of the whole situation in those instances, I can assure you they would have been less critical of Hill and more so of Stitt.
2. Hill’s father gave him a Texas size boot in the ass about maintaining his emotions despite the situation.
3. He loves being a Griz and wants to do whatever it takes to get back to where they should be. Im excited to see what he can do at TE cause I think it will be a huge mismatch for defenses.
I was certainly one that thought he was out the door. Something similar was posted not too long ago, not sure if was you or someone else. When i read his dad gave him a boot in the azz, I thought, now THAT's what I want on our team. Someone that has the FAMILY support to stay. All too often kids whine to parents and they then come out on the offensive in support of their kid. This shows that they understand this is a team game, and no, not every kid playing college football makes the NFL. I love this idea to move to a TE. I can see some trick plays put in for just this situation as well.

Jlm reminds me of a similar return man, levander segars. The way he goes every direction and can make things happen. It also scares me every time you see him running backwards; thinking what the hell are you doing!?!? I think with maturity he will start seeing the field better and being even more of an impact player.
bgbigdog said:Love me some #1. I haven’t seen him play in a while, but my recollection of Levander was a one/two cut start & north/south in a hurry returner. Find the seam & get through it now. I don’t recall him having the change of direct that JLM has, but like McGee, he was absolutely fearless.

krammer said:i really believe Hill brings something to t/e that we do not have,,,very good speed, with enough moves to actually stretch the field even at the t/e position.....analogous in spirit only, to the guy who plays in new england....a true match up nightmare for our opponent at this level.....
regarding le texier to f/b....i don't see that happening as the word before he got injured was that he was vying for playing time (that is how well he was playing at l/b)....
if the calhoun kid is willing to play c/b and would allow kids like flowers to get on the field ...imo that helps our team immensely, by getting the best athletes on the field, period.....
regarding o/l....my only thought is the young kids are going to have to mature and play up from their experience....i think we have talent but the o/l is a different animal all together....
and thank goodness for a football thread.....
