Big Aggie back losing weight
Posted: Wednesday July 25, 2007 07:12AM ET
At his heaviest last season, Texas A&M tailback Jorvorskie Lane weighed 282 pounds. With the season opener five weeks away, Lane now weighs 268 pounds, which he said he considered to be "real light." Still, he wants to lose three more pounds before practice starts in two weeks. Coach Dennis Franchione said he believed that Lane was the best evaluator of his weight. He said he told an assistant coach before last season that Lane needed to lose eight pounds or he would not play in the team's first game. But later, after watching videotape of Lane making long runs in that day???s practice, Franchione told the assistant that he had changed his mind.

I want to see Lane and Goodson both break a 1000 yards this year. There are some backups that are looking good also that should get some play time, and the FB is good also. With the OL we have, they should be in the top 3 in NCAA rushing stats when it is all over.
