Daisy's a Division I player. I'm hoping everyone can see it. I put him at tailback. I put him at quarterback. I put him at safety and I put him at cornerback.

[Butler is] definitely a great athlete with that one thing you can't coach, it's speed. We really used him as kind of a utility guy, defense we played him at corner and we used him as a tailback, a slot-type of back, slot receiver and split end.
Mark Welch
They have a tailback that is probably the quickest kid that we'll see all year.
Kevin Bartz
I don't know how you prepare for him. You have to pay notice to what he is. The game plan is different with each running back. We have to know which tailback is in the game.
Adrian Peterson
Jeff has fullback toughness and tailback speed. He's an outstanding blocker and is a guy who can get the yards when we need them. He really makes us a tough offense to defend because he's a guy opposing defenses have to pay a lot of attention to.
John Andreoli
I enjoyed playing quarterback. But the way I look at it now, with us running the Power-I, I'm in a very important position in the offense. We have a great tailback with E.J. Burgess. Hopefully I can help the team any way I can.
Brian Morris
His best position is tailback and he's more comfortable there, but we may continue to use him there (at receiver) because he's such a threat. Any city game is huge. I don't think it means any more or less than any city game. They're all up there tied with each other.
Hud Venerable
He was the fullback on our state (championship) team. He'd be the tailback for 90 percent of the teams in the state. He's the same size (6-0, 210), and he runs very well. We'll see how he runs at tailback.
John Weber
I think they'll give us their best game. They are going to run their big tailback real hard at you. You're on the road so you always have to give it a little extra shot.
Fred Heinz
He's our fifth-string tailback. Kenny, God bless him, has the heart of a lion, but he's 5-foot-5, 125 pounds. We were at the point where we just wanted to reach down and pound it out, and we're stuck without our first three tailbacks.
Craig Buzea
During fall camp, Fran came to me and told me he wanted me to play fullback, ... I said, 'Sure, Fran, I'll do it.' Basil had a couple good games, and when they did move me back to tailback, there was no way I was going to be the starter because he'd been playing so well.
Ladainian Tomlinson
Gibbs is a good tailback and he runs hard. We're preparing him for the load he's going to have to take on.
Anthony Crabtree
He was a linebacker last year and we were looking for a tailback and tried him there. He didn't know the plays very well, but he's learned them now and got faster over the summer. He's a tough runner.
John Whitelavich
I played fullback my junior year and tailback my senior year. It was a power-I offense. I was blocking back then. That's all we did. It's a whole lot better getting to run the ball.
Jacobe Kendrick
I think we're haunted at tailback, ... At one time, we were pretty deep at tailback.
Tony Wagner
We're asking an awful lot of Derrick to contribute to the varsity team as a sophomore. But he's our future. He's going to be our No. 1 tailback the next two years. And you're going to see him play a lot this year. We're certainly excited to have him in our program.
Richard Pettus
He volunteered for that switch because it would better the team. It gives us an extra running back. He'd get more stats at tailback, but he is not about that. He sacrificed himself for the better of the team.
Randy Raynor
Both us are going to be on the field at the same time, with me playing fullback, and tailback and receiver and tight end.
Michael Pittman
I've said all along it's going to be a tailback-by-committee, three guys, unless at some point someone really starts to separate themselves. And that's happened.
Charlie Taaffe
Definitely, he is a very good athlete. He has the potential to take over a game, but they are one of those teams where you have to pick your spots. It's not only Perkins, it's (tailback Andrew) Taylor, it's (fullback Matt) Morris, it's (running back Nick) Covert. They are a very balanced team.
Jamie Freeland
We've got some options on offense. We'll run more option, bootleg and waggle, and we'll use fullback, tailback and quarterback as runners. With the quarterback running, we've got an extra threat from what we've had the last few years.
Mark Hackett
Edison's overall team speed is fantastic, ... It's harder to go outside on them and then even when the tailback is six yards deep when your running downhill on them, they got a chance to converge and make plays. We came and ran the ball hard, but I give Edison's defense a lot of credit because they're a very physical, fast football team.
Chad Lewis
When the ball is snapped, you see it all develop with the guys up front. A lot of teams complain about our linemen cutting, but our guys get the defense on the ground, and that gives our tailback a chance to see where the hole might be.
Justin Griffith
This is the most talented group of running backs I've had during my career here. You always want a 1-2 punch at the tailback position, and we feel like we have that.
John Miech
Except for two seniors that graduated. They have a tailback committed to University of Tennessee. Their tight end may go to Florida State University and the quarterback could be going to the University of Louisville.
Dixie Jones
They'll have a good offensive line returning, plus they return their fullback and tailback. Their offense is similar to DeWitt's. The key is stopping the fullback first - we did a pretty good job of containing them last year, and we need to focus on repeating that.
Mark Bloom
They're a scrappy bunch and can really get after it. They're going to be well coached and have some good skill guys at quarterback and tailback. If we continue to get better each week like we are, I think we should be fine.
Judd Boswell
He will be in competition with Troy Davis and right now, Troy Davis is our starting tailback.
Greg Marshall
He played tailback for us last year, but he is primarily a defensive player now.
Barney Hester
I'm trying to show them I'm not only just a fullback, I can be somebody's third tailback. They can get a two-for-one deal with Lawrence Vickers. Two-for- one.
Lawrence Vickers
[Baker's claim to fame was blocking for tailback Curtis Martin on Martin's way to the 2004 rushing title.] I took a great amount of pride in that, ... were frustrated but we said: 'Let's get something out of this. Let's not just go out there and say we're not getting the ball so we're not going to do this.'
Anthony Becht
They are better than Raines, ... They've got the folks. They've got a Super 11 receiver [Jamal Harvey], a tailback that is as good as ours, a huge tight end - it's going to be a great game.
Joe Reynolds
They have a lot of good athletes. They have a good quarterback, good receivers and a good tailback.
Robbie Blanton
We didn’t have a tailback to go in because they’re exhausted.
Scott Ford
We have playmakers at wide receiver, we have a quarterback that knows how to win and can turn a bad play into a good one, and we have a tailback who already has done a lot of great things for us. We'd like to keep them going from where they ended last season.
Dan Mccarney
This feels good - my first game at tailback and I get athlete of the week, ... I couldn't do it without my blockers but it feels good. I wouldn't be able to do it without my team helping me out.
Adam Morris
He's an extremely tough kid, hits hard on defense and he can run a little bit. So right now I still have not established who my starting tailback is. It could take a few games.
Mark Shields
They kept going hard after the tailback to stop that all night. We went with the reverse to catch that and we got lucky.
Dick Isaacson
We used a two tailback system tonight. I thought Marquis Browning and Rodney Bragg did a great job splitting time. We were able to have fresh legs going into the fourth quarter.
Richard Moore
They're coming in with a bunch of new guys on offense at tailback and quarterback, so we expected it somewhat. I think the offense will eventually come around and start making some big-time plays.
Paul Duren
Again, it's the experience factor. He didn't play tailback last year, so it takes time.
Karl Kiefer
Last week, they played about the same number of snaps. The plays aren't called based on who is in there in tailback. They're called based on a situation. When Matt was in there, he got a few more carries. They understand it, and they know their roles.
