[throw deep]

Let me say this, too, since this thread is about Sani Warren.

I've been around the Belfry program a long time. There have been some good QBs there who probably could have threw the ball all over the field had they been at other schools (Casey Lequire, Andrew Elkins, Paul Howard, etc), but there has always been "studs" there to hand the ball off to and usually more than one.

When Jonathan Wright was at Belfry, there were no such RBs and he could sling the rock. And I don't see a RB at Belfry right now capable of taking the pounding that 20+ carries a game will give you.

Does that mean Haywood will allow Sani to throw the ball 20+ times a game? I don't know, it remains to be seen, but the personnel is more suited for it now than it has been in the last 10-15 years.

I would love to know if and when a Pirate running back has ever averaged 20+ carries a game?? Even the workhorse fullbacks that have played there have never averaged 20+ carries a game for the entire year....Belfry will be fine in the backfield this year,the key to it all is to be able to throw the ball WHEN YOU WANT TO!!! Not when you have to in a long yardage situation and the opposing defense knows its coming also. An effective passing game has to work with an effective running game.
