[NU Sports] Another Review from Evanston

What is missing in all this commentary on the offense is any talk of C.J.

When he was recruited by Dunbar and Fitz, he was considered almost the 2nd
coming of Baz. He's a little laid back [from Cali after all] but when I talked
with him after a spring game, he was very comfortable with the offense and was
looking forward to getting a shot at starting once Baz graduated.

I can remember some of his running before he got hurt, and he seemed to be as
good a runner as anyone trying for the position.

However, you can't be a running QB with a stress fracture, and you can't be a
passing QB with a painful fracture in your landing leg.

Fitz doesn't talk about CJ and I'm surprised nobody has asked him about his
potential return. Unless he's still not 100%, you wonder why he hasn't been
given a shot at getting the O moving...?
