Smelley to start but look for some new guys to get a chance


Looks like Spurrier is going to shake things up and get some new players on the field Saturday, which is a good thing. Maybe even the 6 year old above who is showing our receivers how to catch a ball will get to play some...seriously this kid was catching everything thrown his way last Saturday. He is kinda like our WRs as they just need a QB to get the ball to them and I am not talking about triple coverage.

Smelley will get the nod at QB to begin with but coach Steve Spurrier said Garcia will get some reps....this is good. And in reading this article - here- seems some others are getting some well deserved 'PT.'

Breakdown of new blood -

  • Sophomore Brian Maddox will start at tailback for Mike Davis, one of four players suspended for violating the athletic department’s class attendance policy
  • Terence Campbell will start at right guard for Heath Batchelor, who also is suspended
  • Joe Hills and Jason Barnes will start at WR
  • Larry Freeman will start at tight end along with Jared Cook if USC opens in a two tight-end set
  • Clifton Geathers will start at defensive end for Jordin Lindsey, who also is suspended

Update - USC left tackle Jarriel King is doing better...good luck King!
