    Boothby

    Does Boothby stay at Fullback or move back to the D-line?

    It seems as though the FB spot has been a place to help get those athletes who need to see the field an opportunity to play some. Mahaffey started there, then moved to TE. Does Boothby do the same (move to D-line)?
    The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.

    I sure hope he moves back to d-line. We need the depth there and we really don't have a fullback...keeping him there would be a huge waste.

        Kinney and Ruffin will be a good core to build around.

          Yeah they will. Don't forget Wes Lane. And I'm glad to have them back, but this year we always had 6-7 guys in that rotation. That was a big part of the success of that group. We need some players to step up.

            I think we'll have some decent depth. Probably not the same as 2008. But you've got Bennett and Cason at the ends to complement Ruffin.

            But if I had a Xmas list for recruiting, it would be that 295 pound interior lineman to replace EP. I think that' what we'll miss the most.

            But as I look over UNI's roster overall...DAMN we've got some players coming back in 2009!!

              Re: Boothby

              I think he goes back to D-Line.

              I'm sure Farley understands this more than us...but he needs to get a FBS or JUCO transfer in at DE. We need another speed rush next year.

              More concerning to me is the DBs. I think Canaday and Craig James start...but who of the other freshman will start....or do we need to go FBS/Juco there as well?

              The offense should be lethal next year only losing swift and lewis...we have a stable of RBs.

                Re: Boothby

                Will be interesting to see if Quentin Scott gets time at safety next year. He really come on in kick coverage down the stretch run. That 6'5" frame can cover a lot of territory.

                Not sure if we'll see Canady at corner or safety next year. Looking for Garrett Scott to break into the lineup at safety.

                I know there are 3 or 4 freshman DBs on the roster but obviously haven't seen any play yet.

                  Nico Watson, who is redshirting was a highly touted recruit. Look for him to be in the cournerback rotation.

                    Re: Boothby

                    I would think that a D-line with:
                    Ruffin, Lane, Kinney, and Cason is pretty serviceable.

                    With Boothby, Admire, and Bennett, there is some inexperienced potential depth.

                    That doesn't include Tim Clark from Oklahoma. He was a pretty highly sought after recruit.

                    I agree though...I would like to see Farley go after a JC/FBS interior D-lineman.

                      Maybe we should poach some ISU players.

                        Maybe our players are already better than theirs. Seriously.

                          That's what he meant. Get some ISU guys to back up our current stock.

                            I think the reason he got switched this year was because last summer he dropped quite a bit of weight.

                              Talked to him at church tonight...he'd like to stay at fullback, but will play wherever they put him...
