“Ronald actually has pretty good hands. He just picked up a blitz picture perfect at the end of practice.”
— USC running backs coach Tommie Robinson on idea Ronald Jones might play less because of his pass catching or blocking skills

Ok, let’s see it on Saturday then, coach. Show us Ronald and the O-line running a screen pass. Just get him going.
I’m impressed with Justin Davis pass catching this season. He’s improved and it makes our offense more dangerous.
I thought he was recovery from a injury?
That was the word. His ribs were injured. He’s not the same as last season, probably because the ribs, but I think he’s gonna get going. He’s to damn explosive. Home run hitters have slumps. Chris Johnson had a big slump after running for 2,000 yards and then he got it going. ROJO just needs to continue to play hard and compete.
One big issue with RoJo was his pass blocking, or lack of. He has fair hands and can catch most passes, but Ware is the guy that can do all three, run, block, and catch.
I like Ware. It think he can be a good back. Give Rojo some time, Wares not better than Rojo. At least not yet. Next season it’ll be all theirs.
