[NU Sports] Any word on CJ yet?

[Roy Lamberton]

As you hear from the TV pundits, there is a big difference between levels of
football.

HS guys have to adjust to the pure speed of Div I defenses, once the game
begins to slow down, they become productive. Persa's challenge would be
getting the game to slow down should he have to play.

Kafka, having sat for so long, also has to adjust to the speed of the game
again. Earlier in the season, he came in for a series, threw two passes that
didn't connect, and was out again. He's decent runner, but he has to be able
to throw the ball, and that is half O-line, half in his own head.

I'd love to see Kafka get in there and operate the offense, score a bunch of
TDs and come away with a win over Minny. 

Of course Brewer is back and able to play, and Peterman can run that
reverse/pass play....

He did play a couple downs at QB (against SIU, I think), and I believe he's
a regular on special teams.
