Wow, the rich get richer indeed! I truly expected Amos not to be back this season. This is going to be a damn near impossible secondary to deal with considering the way everyone else has stepped it up. More pass rush from the Dline means more interceptions and the leading scoring defense in the country at seasons end.

I just checked his recorded HS track times and he could run with some of the WR's. We may want him in the rotation at corner in case things get dicey with Purdue's WR corps. Fresh legs can't hurt...

IIRC, he shut down Manningham in a high school game...

Congrats to Andre for making the come back must quicker than anticipated. He was one of those young player who got more and more pt has the season went along last year. However, with Washington and Chekwa playing so well, it's going to be interesting to see how coaches utilize the talent that they have. If Jenkins bolts after this season, Amos will without a doubt be one of the main beneficiaries.

Also on the defensive side of the ball, it was learned this week that freshman corner Eugene Clifford has missed some time due to an undisclosed injury, but that Clifford has now returned to action. On a more positive note, corner Andre Amos has returned to action after recovering from knee surgery.

"For that guy to come back off of a knee surgery so quick, usually you have a surgery like that it takes probably to the end of the season and if you're lucky by Bowl time for a guy to come back, and he came back Purdue week full practice," said OSU corner backs coach Taver Johnson.

"He's been doing well and we expect some big things out of him.

"He's really athletic," said Johnson of Amos.

"We were really, really kind of down when he got hurt because he was coming along, he was getting better."
