Unsung hero Trey Tyus

He’s not a TE. Way too short.
And Dan Vitale wasn’t?

If you make him play defense, he may transfer.

By playing superback, he at least will get the ball in his hands and score TDs if he’s open. Jake could even draw a nice trick play or two in the dirt.

1) Yes. Vitale was 6007 with 31 3-4” arms. That’s way too small to play TE.

2) …which is why you seldom saw him deployed as a traditional TE. He was almost always in a wing, the backfield, or split wide.

3) If he transfers… ok? Use the scholarship on another player.

How will you choose amongst the Johnny no-stars recruits to replace him?

Also 50/50 chance we lose the Howard game without him.

Finally, why throw away a guy that has been loyal to the program for 3 years? Cripes we need talent badly.

1) He already isn’t playing behind Porter and Himon. I’ve also heard good things about Komolafe.

2) Reeder (if he sticks) at least has a lot more typical running back “tools” — build, speed, etc.

3) You think Tyus is a material reason we beat Howard? Ok.

4) Why is asking a guy to change positions in any way “throwing a guy away?”

Why change positions? He seems to be taking a role on the team in his current position. We have highly rated recruits that can’t even see the rotation. Select someone else to pick on. Covey?

Because I think he would be a better linebacker than running back?

And nobody’s picking on anyone.
