From an overall play calling perspective, I was just glad to see the Tigers show so many different possibilities, esp. throwing more to the FB & TE. Realizing it is the spring game & they aren't going to give away the entire playbook, it was a refreshing & very welcome change from the often predictable and sometimes ineffective play-calling of the past few seasons.

Agreed, I do feel like Dillon Gordon has a chance to be special this year.

It was funny because I had so many "experts" around me. On a play where the TE caught a TD off of a play action fake, I believe, right before the snap some schmo yelled out "it's a DAMN Run!" like he was saying the offense was too predictable. I hope the defenses we face are just like that moron.

In 1997 at Indiana, Cam's running backs caught 99 passes. His fullback caught 54 for 422 yards.

In 2001, Jeremi Johnson, who played for a number of years in the NFL and was built very similarly to Copeland, caught 16 passes for 213 yeards and 1 TD as a fullback.
