Boone Lt, Barton Lg, Cordle C, Smith Rg, Rehring Rt

You seriously think Barton's gonna start for 3 years at RT and then move inside to LG?! He was one of our top 2 O-lineman while healthy this year. I don't know why no one gives him credit.

Well Barton is jus shorter than Rehring who WAS starting before he went out for the year. Not saying I don't like barton cuz I honestly love the way he plays, but its jus my opinion. I'd take either Rehring or Barton at right tackle. I just went with the shortest man to put at Gaurd which happened to be Barton.....

Congrats TO CHRIS!

back to Wells...i cannot wait to see him coming in on a tired defense when Pittman gets a breather. or vice versa! ohh...we're spoiled now. :)

Beanie looks old enough physically to be a 5 year vet in the NFL.

Good article that discusses CW's training regimen and plans to "dominate" the AA game.

 

[OSUBasketballJunkie]

Chris Wells sounds like a coaches dream at this point.

 

[scarletngrey11]

I watched the game last year, but I cant remember everything and have some questions. How many carries will he get, and will he start?

 

[ysubuck]

With Coach Ginn calling the plays I think Chris will get his touches in the AA game.

 

[Hodge]

Chris was in today's Parade as the top running back on the Parade All-American team.

I would have to agree.
