Interesting that with 3 6-7+ guys up front, plus the two 6-5 superbacks, the football team
is taller than the basketball team! Maybe BC could get them to scrimmage with the starters
so we get used to playing bigger teams?

I remember interviewing Zach Streif and Barry Gardner after one spring practice, my arm
hurt having to hold the recorder up that high (I'm 5-9).

If you want to run the ball, you have to have good blocking up front. It doesn't hurt to
have a 300 lb guy setting a pick on a LB either.
