Body type wise makes sense, but doubt he'll play this season

Two years ago, I watched a Colorado team (after being devastated by injuries in the secondary) play 3rd string WRs and walk-on RBs to fill their roster on D. I think they played all of their freshman too.

Some teams just get a dose of bad luck with injuries...

Good luck to all our players who may change positions due to our current situation.

Oh, he'll play. AYSO Rules are in effect: Cal + injuries = Everyone Plays.

Anyone think we will see Boehm play some defense? I mean its not like they are ever going to run him in the wildcat again (even though it looked like it was working)

Yikes. There wasn't a happy ending for that coaching staff...

Well they also had no offense or special teams and led the nation in false starts and overall penalties so we have a ways to go still. I think our offense will get better as the season goes on but yeah, our defense might set some records for points and yardage against us this year.

I'm 5'11". Maybe I should try out for DB. However my 40 time is like 10 seconds.

Why not? Sonny doesn't even know how to use a fullback.

If there is an offense out there that desperately needs a blocker for our RB...its us...sigh

LOL.
I'm 5'11'' too, but my 40 time is sub 10 seconds. I do have stiff hips, though.
I'll play the opposite corner.

You two would quickly be our next injury casualties. I'm thinking within the first three minutes of your first practice.

Max won't be playing anytime soon...so Walker should stay at safety for now

We're a high-powered air raid offense! We don't do blocking.

Reading his bio it looks like he got moved to TE by Tedford and was playing as WR earlier this year. I remember hearing a bit about him but lost track of it.

I hope he can regain his defensive instincts in a hurry though. He was a 2-star LBer out of HS.

Yep ESPN saw him as an outside linebacker who needed to put on some weight: LINK With his size and experience as a QB and WR, he could be a very good safety.

I wonder how Trey Cheek is coming along... If he still injured? Practicing?

What about Jason Gibson? Thought I saw him at safety late against Ohio State but haven't heard much about him after he made the move to safety.

I'm 6' 205 and have a torn ACL. I fit the profile of the team, can I play?

Rumblings he may be moved back to LB. Not sure if that is true.

Dear Sonny,

I'm 4'6" 305 lbs and very hard to bring down. My 40 time is 40 and have a 1 inch vertical leap. My lateral movement is consistently stationary and my hands are hard as stone. I've never played football before but consistently score in the top ten in Madden 2013. All I do is stay home everyday, lay under my wife and make love to her and quite frankly, just like the rest of the team, I'm ready to change positions.

Sonny, you want to win and get the Monkey off your back, Well, if you get this big Beast off me, we'll both benefit. You can reach me at home, I'll be under what looks like a big red log.

Thanks,
Bubba Bear

Well, I got a good laugh at the beginning. One inch vertical leap made me lol, which shook the bed, and woke up the angry bear wife next to me.

Based on the thread title, I thought this would be an OT post about some Central American social justice activist moving to a sanctuary city.

Yeah, he's been at lb all spring practice. He's one of the guys Dykes noted for making significant progress and playing well.

He's played several positions, doing what he can to help.
So, what's your point?

This was an entertaining thread the first time around, so wanted to bump it now that he's moved to LB. If you think I'm knocking Maximo or the team, you should refine your hate-dar.

You feeling a bit persecuted? Hate ?????
Okay, you were just restating that Max is at LB.
