Current Wr's On The Roster

[SilverEagle]

This reminds me. Did anyone show up to watch the walk-on try-outs Tuesday? As I recall the try-outs were supposed to be on Feb 20th.

There are 2 other guys to consider at WR-

Robert Gordon, from Ardmore OK, listed at DB. This guy was a state chamion on his

HS track team--I forgot which track event. Has alot of speed. Listed at 5-10, 175lbs,

I beleive he was a red shirt last year.

Also, Desmon Chatman from Conroe. 6-2, 187lbs, listed as a DB. Tall and real fast.

I beleive he was a red shirt last year also.

One last note, regarding Sam Roberson, 6-4, 210lbs, WR recruit. This guy played

CB in HS too. Remember Coach Dodge stated, "Can you imagine a 6-4 corner?"

I wonder if Coach Dodge was hinting at a position change for Sam?

I hope Coach dodge will keep Sam at WR.

Roberson turned down offers from Auburn and Cal because they solely wanted him to play DB. He's coming here to play WR.

Chatman played in all 12 games as a DB last year. He redshirted in 2005.

I don't think this would happen unless it was absolutely necessary. Coach LaCroix's philosophy regarding DB's is to have one big corner and 1 smaller quicker corner for match ups. This would mean of course 2 of each for depth. Most of the time a coach is slower moving people from D to O because you normally put your best athletes on D (for various reasons). It generally is an easier move from D to O, but not one that coaches are quick to make. It's just harder to play D and be reactionary as oppose to go run this route or that route where you know what you're doing as a WR.
