B, There’s only been 2 RBs as true frosh who have received reps in games during the Tedford era. If Yarnway brings something to the table that can’t be found at it, then he has a chance… I believe today’s practice could speak volumes to that, but we and JO won’t know, since he can’t view that part of practice. Would someone please set up a webcam on Tightwad Hill in the trees? Joking!

Go BEARS!

JO,

Any chance we see Yarnway used as a short yardage back? I don’t see him getting PT normally with Best and Vereen on the team, but he has size neither of them have and could be useful in a limited role like that.

That’s good news about Riley. I’m glad to see he’s maturing.

Yarnway is already 222 lbs. By the time he gets to where he’s gonna see playing time on a regular bases he’s going to be a BEAST! Can’t wait to see a bruiser line up in the Cal backfield.

Tony, Yarnway is just getting occassional reps with the first and second team. DeBoskie-Johnson is still the No. 3 guy right now.

Thanks for the tidbits JO. Nice to hear about Yarnway. But where does that leave Deboskie? Has he fallen behind on the chart now?
