yeah, i think this decision has a lot to do with pass coverage than run support/pass rush, where i think the other more athletic guys would probably be more favored. i am thinking dan is more adept at reading coverage and reacting accordingly.

Wehofx – Camporeale was mentioned quite a bit during spring, so i don’t think it’s a huge surprise. I’m guessing has the mental advantage over the younger guys, and physically he’s not to far behind. As you know, McCain & whiteside might be superior athletes, but one bad move and you can give up a 60 yard touchdown.

BTW- this also answers tons of questions about why mccain, whiteside, scarlett, davis all competing for one side. Per Tedford, mccain will back up wilkerson.

JO, did Camporeale getting the start at olb surprise you as much as, it seems, most of the rest of us?

Regardless, gotta love the depth, ie frosh Whiteside and McCain will surely get pt as back ups.

GO BEARS!
