N&R: Run defense still a priority for Aggies

[Bornthrilla]

GREENSBORO — Travis Crosby can choose from a variety of ways to make his presence known in the Aggies’ defense.

That’s part of the job description for the guy who plays “Rover,” a hybrid position that nestles somewhere between outside linebacker and strong safety.

He can drop into pass coverage and provide his cornerbacks help over top. He can pick up a tight end, slot receiver or back in man-to-man coverage. He can settle in behind the front seven and provide run support.

I miss the days when the N&R assigned a legitimate beat writer to cover A&T football. Rob Daniels would have done enough homework to know that Dvonte Graham did not sit out last season because of "personal reasons". He missed last year because he was suspended.

Daniels definitely would have asked Broadway what was the current status of Lewis Kindle heading into the season opener. Granted he got most of his information from this site, but he at least would do some investigating reporting on his own ... go figure.

The new staff writers over at the paper now are basically just reprinting everything Brian puts in the weekly game notes.

Will there be any internet feeds for the game?

I think Coastal has a pretty good live feed for their home games:

As much flack as Rob caught, I tried to tell ppl he was a little odd but good at his job. You can read the difference now but papers are shrinking man. That's just the business.

Rob Daniels was a poet in the classical sense of the word.

Guess you don't miss folks until they are gone ...
