Nice National Headlines, but will be nicer if James runs over 1800 Yards with helping Pitt win 10+ games and capture the Heisman Vote! In about 3 Days we will know how Pitt Teammates rally around and with James Conner for a very special season for them all.
Excerpt:
James Conner is going to experience something pretty incredible on Saturday when Pittsburgh opens up its 2016 season against Villanova................After all of the trials and tribulations of the last year, Conner will take the field on Saturday as Pittsburgh's starting running back, and that moment will be something special..............Conner is ready for his moment. He's even ready with a special celebration for his first big run, especially if it's a touchdown................
"I want to spike the ball," he said, via ESPN.com. "I might get a penalty. If I break a lot of tackles and run somebody over in the end zone, then I'm spiking it and I'm going to take the 15-yard penalty, which Coach will understand. If I break a long run, I don't know. Whatever I do, it will be real quick and then I'm going to celebrate with my teammates."
Outside of that mask and the no-contact rules, it resembled any other spring for Pitt's star running back as he eyes a return to the form that saw him run for 1,765 yards and 26 touchdowns in 2014.
