Random Thoughts

DVO

Seems that DVO is starting to separate himself from the other QB's. Note I said it seems he is separating. I will be clear that just by judging from the practice notes and comments from coaches DVO right now is the second string QB. DW gets first string strictly because of him being a veteran and having the experience he has. DW could very well lose that position if DVO can show these three things; 1.) be consistent, 2.) Make plays and 3.) Make plays consistently. If DVO can show he can do these things he will be the starter for wake.

Carlton Jones

This guy needs our respect. So far Carlton Jones has been a very impressive RB in practice. A little reminder as to who Jones is; He is a Tampa native and was an unranked two star RB according to rivals.com. He ran for 1,228 yards and 16 TD's as a senior in high school. The major question here is will he be able to take what he has done in practice and turn it into a real game? If this guy is as good as advertised things will be very good for our running game this year. Not only will it take runs away from Smith, who has suffered from injuries, this may ultimately make Smith a more efficient and productive runner.
