How unusual will it be not to have Ray Robinson out there when full squad preseason drills begin?
I had Ray as a true freshman but I didn’t have him a sophomore because I left that year to join the Cleveland Browns. I came back the next season and had him his last two years.

Q: Even if Cotra Jackson is able to return for his senior season, there will still be a lot of youth at the tailback position this year. Will you have to change your approach and perhaps become more patient as you try to prepare these young guys for the upcoming season?
