Re: The QB position

URI has 3 -4 good RB's-Prince Johnson is good.
Pires is another fast,explosive weapon at RB and punt returns,just needs to cut the mistakes (hang onto the ball).

Re: Dwayne Scott Transfers to Boston College

The other thing is Rhody plays a dynamite schedule this year.
Ohio and VaTech look to be very tough.
add in CAA.
This happened after spring ball also?
BC must not have liked their options and Scott has to have some guarantee?
BC has three transfer O lineman I think. Two via FCS.
