What makes you think that? Where would he go?
Kinda like the idea of Johnny Dwight at FB. Kinda seems like an LSU thing to do, but if we are gonna use a true fullback, let's make it a guy about 280.
Kirven moving to OL should get more reps for young guys like Frazier and hand. Maybe he can earn a role as a tackle/guard.

The work at RB sounds temporary to me. JMHO.

Where do you think he'd go? WR or HB? Surely not defense

Sounds like Bo isn't staying at RB
Good, imo. He should play RB, H-Back, TE, FB, both WRs, Slot, etc. Lot to learn for a young guy so obviously not all at once.

I'd love to see him as the Nudie role. He's a big guy, I think he would do well there if he could block.

Maybe when he is a junior. Based on some of the less than positive reports regarding his work ethic, it's silly to think he'll learn all those roles in one year. For now just keep him in the backfield and maybe have a few plays where he motions out into the flat. Then in bowl practice, or if our other RBs are killing it in the regular season, work him some more as a receiver. We've already got an athletic mismatch at TE, so I don't see why we really need to work him there this season. Maybe use him similar to how Aaron Hernandez was used in New England

I think he's better with the ball in his hand than as a lead blocker.

I'd be shocked if Bo was still around as a junior. He could go pro after his sophomore year, especially if his work ethic is bad.

Shocked? Really? I hope he's that good
Posted on 3/13/15 at 7:53 pm to SECSolomonGrundy
I just meant, if he is lazy with school work, that he might be forced to go pro. I hope that's not the case though.

Blake Barnett needs to focus on weight gain in his redshirt season. He's skinnier than AJ as a true freshman.

Robert Foster looks really fast and fluid. Could be set for a breakout year.
I wouldn't be surprised to see Bateman win this qb race. Still think Coker is the most likely candidate though.

Whatever, he's so thin that opposing LBs won't see him when he stands sideways! HE'S UNTOUCHABLE!
Posted on 3/13/15 at 10:06 pm to alabamabuckeye
He's a legit 6-5 200.

Bateman, Cornwell, and Barnett LINK

wouldn't it make sense with Bo to practice him at what his primary position will be first? they have said since day one that they'll in him up at several positions on O. i wouldn't read too much into that comment right now.
