    I can actually see a Cody holdout with Alvin Keels at the helm. Cody dropped well below his projected draft status, so Keels will over value him.

    I like this kid alot... we know and appreciate the work of a good fullback.

    i can see him being utilized more that T-Rich and him doing more on this team than just block...he'll be a fan favorite.

    As every moment passes I get more excited about our draft, especially our UDFA's.

    When Morgan Newton became their quarterback, Kentucky spent a ton of time in the shotgun and in the Wildcat. They focused on getting the ball into the hands of their playmakers...guys like Randall Cobb and Derrick Locke.

    Before Newton though, when Mike Hartline was their QB, the Wildcats ran a more traditional offense.

    People can't find any video on this kid, right? Well, I started searching for videos of their more exciting playmakers and I came across this Locke TD run against Carolina.

    John Conner knocks Eric Norwood on his ass and Locke runs in for the score:

    I also just found a clip of John Conner taking out two Georgia players that led to a TD run (starts @ 33 seconds) and (@ 1:26) Conner opens a hole on a goalline TD:

    Nice finds Mr. E. I have a gut feeling that Conner and Greene will be a force together in that backfield. Conner looks like an absolute punisher.

    He is going to wear down defenders. I can see him as a Mcclain type back.

    Great finds, Mr. E! I love it, Conner is like a human battering ram.

    HAHAH. So this guy was the number 1 prospect in regards to Fullbacks? If so sweet. Fullbacks never get the love, but to vital to a dominate running team.

    Probably said this already, but he looks like a miniature guard when he plays. He has a stocky build and broad shoulders. It almost looks like someone shrunk down Will Shields.

    If that is the case he already has his nickname written in stone.

    The Terminator, there is no way it will not be.

    I've replayed that 9 second clip of Conner destroying Norwood at least a dozen times.
