Coming into this upccoming season we aren't going to have as many recievers as we did the preivious year (which what mainly got me mad a bout the passing game) but something the Rams will have this year unmlike the past 2 years is the threat of a passing game is they choose to use it of course they may not have as amny recievers but anyone can catch a football now hhere's a point that I would like to get to and that is to move Conley to the Fullback position...in theory what may be stupid could actually be beneficial think about it as a lead fullback if he runs into someone to block them the person he's goin to hit will probably mobe not only that but unmlike last year he can create a gap almost as wide as a mack truck for the runningbakc to go through and hell you can even give him a aquick hitter for some yardage I think if you move him to mor of a fullback position it will be helpful for our running game...well at least that's my thoughts.

Thats where he was when he first moved here but then they found out that he can't go that long at running. He is dead like after 4 plays. And I heard he couldn't even remember the plays.

Now just going by what you said that's where you have to have some sort of rotation of fullbacks or something to fit him in or you could use him on passing downs or short yardage pdowns (but after awhile you would have to switch him up on passing plays cause the other team would figure it out)what i'm saying is if it's let's say 3rd and 2 3rd and 3 you put him in there as a leads blocker you could probably manage to get the firsyt down not only that but if your in the redzone or near the goaline you have a choice of handing it too him or using him asa lead blocker. (I can actually picture him as a Richard Seymour type fullback as use him situational) but anyway I think it could help the team he could be like the Motsinger kid from Corydon last year (or better yet when he was at Salem) and be a bruiser type fullback.

He would have to learn the plays which would be hard for him since he has trouble telling from his left and his right.

To move away from teh Conley story does anyone know if the offensive line is going to be any good next year?...because from last year when 3/4 of your line is 250lbs. or over and you don't have a dominate ol there's a problem I laugh sometimes at the times that there could have been sacks in which went for long runs with players tripping over their own feet or running into each other not to beat on last year to much but the two things i thought that would'vemade the team a little better was to move Andry to a slot reciever and move Cline to a Tight End everyone saw how good he could catch...anyway can anuyone tell me from a player standpoint (besides having a bad o-line) what were the problems?

Well lets see the linemen from the class of 06. There is Terrell,Brim,Andry, and Burton. Ryan Brown and Jason Cook are coming back. Those are some pretty strong guys. I know they probably want it more then the class of 05. They just need to keep working out and stay with it. And so far they are doing that.

I think for an O-Line to be successfuk they fhave to fire off the line and be physical something that I didn't understand about last year you had big guys but they fell asleep on the line or something....I remember this one time it was either against North Posey or Perry Cenmtral anyway the Ram either run a sweep or or a latteral to the Runningback on the left side anyway the lineman runs over there only to brush the player he was blocking?....I was watching a video I have and was watching Jonathon Ogden of teh Ravnes as he would block sweeps and passing attempts and etc. and taking away the fact that he was 6'8" and 325lbs his stance was beautiful as soon as he would fire off the line he would get right in the numbers if the end (on a sweep or counter) and just drive him back or just like pancakie him when the Defensive End would sepeed ush just thought that was interesting....but anyway the point you made about the last 3 years Line not caring and not just because that's my class I graduated with but I would say that in the 2002 (2003 seniors) season that line could have won 5 games (honestly should have)
