After chatting with him for a couple of minutes on and off camera, it sounds like things are going well under Eddie Gran. The veterans are improving; the freshmen are learning; and everyone is on board with winning at all costs.
Some quick-hitters from JoJo…
Gran using his track record with running backs to teach unselfishness.
Auburn’s Ronnie Brown and Cadillac Williams went second and fifth overall in the 2005 NFL draft after playing for Gran, now UK’s running backs coach, throughout their entire college careers.
Needless to say, Gran knows a little bit about getting backs to share touches and how there can still be individual success through teamwork.
