Frankly I can't see them running Demski up the gut as he probably hasn't run that way in many years, so that option is probably not as flexible as it was with Flanders.

They do it to dressler despite injury concerns and have run adams too. They would run my great grandmother up the gut off motion if she was still alive. 21 minutes ago, Atomic said: Funny article about Streveler's start last night from what seems to be a bitter University of Minnesota fan. https://www.thedailygopher.com/2018/6/15/17467752/minnesota-football-chris-streveler-drew-wolitarsky-touchdown-cfl-winnipeg Who knew do or die was a golden gophers fan?? i love the article thanks for sharing.

So smart move by Streveller to leave. And holding the all time record for receptions in California high school football, is a significant accomplishment comments are funny too. Thanks!

June 16, 20187 yr comment_336689 According to the comments his first start at Minnesota was also delayed by a thunderstorm. Crazy.

I'm seriously wondering if I am watching the same game everyone else is at this point.

My definition of "up the gut" is between the tackles, I don't see Dressler, Adams or your Granny running in that territory. I think they did it once or twice with Demski and he looked alright but I question his durability to do it often.

Theyve done it with all three. they ran dressler up the gut last year after he had come back from injury. Of course it cant be out side the tackle and up the gut. 😆
June 16, 20187 yr comment_336772 I'd rather take 5'8 and 200lbs Augustine or LaFrance running up the middle to complement Harris - leave Demski as SB, he's already fitting in really well
June 16, 20187 yr comment_336776 Demski is a tailback. Moving to receiver is the conversion, he's fine to run the ball.

Projecting that forward it will be 576 yards for the season. Not bad, but not really any different from JFG, who was alot easier on the cap space.

Mike Reilly is going to throw for 7200 yards but only 18 TD's, 36 TD's rushing. Kevin Fogg is going to have 2000 missed FG return yards. Charleston Hughes is going to have 54 sacks. James Wilder is going to have 80 carries and Adarius Bowman is going to have 0 catches!

That's how you build an offense that is difficult to defend when you don't have a Mike Reilly at QB, and we don't have that even when Nichols is healthy. Edited June 16, 20187 yr by JuranBoldenRules

I thought the conversation was about making him into a permanent RB/SB type rather than having a fullback - I totally agree that there should be a few gadget plays for Demski First, Lapo has to get Harris and Streveler on the same page for passing/screens - I think it will happen According to The Source, Andrew Harris will finish the season with only 108 receiving yards... super depressing... he was so good last year
