The ESPN preview mentions Alfred Morris and Xavier Stinson battling for the fullback spot.
Where does that leave Rose??
I thought Rose would be the #1 guy with either Morris or Stinson getting some serious time as well.
GO OWLS!!!

I guess they must consider Rose a running back rather than a pure blocking full back, or maybe that's where Howard is thinking about putting him this season. I mean, you would consider Mike Alstott a full back, but he did more of his damage actually carrying the ball. I see Rose as a mini Alstott, sort of.

Read the comments under this article. A ULM fan thinks they're going bowling this season.. I already wrote back to him
My two favorite teams are FAU, and who ever is beating FIU!

Our offense was excellent all Spring minus some new centers who have to practice their snaps from now until August. Outside of the usual crew, VanCamp and Jean are also going to turn some heads this Fall.Exit39 said
Does anyone worry that our offense was terrible all spring?

I agree. Rose is a fullback that is actually a real threat to run with the ball and catch the ball. Not very common in today's game of 245lb bulldozers. However, he isn't really a tailback either. We have such depth at both positions it will be interesting to see where he fits in.
I suppose FAU has always gone with smaller more versatile FBs such as Sanchez and now Rose. Maybe having Morris and Stinson will give us more of a pure FB and help to open up the running game. It will be interesting to see how the ball is spread around with all of the talent in the backfield.
