Don't forget about ace backup Clarence Green

Bill C.: We always have a thing for the younger guys. As it became clear that neither Donavin Newsom nor Clarence Green were separating themselves in the battle for starting SLB last year, most of either assumed or simply hoped that Newsom, a year behind Green (and more touted from a recruiting perspective) would eventually win the job. It seems like Newsom has eased ahead of Green this August, but Green's going to play a solid amount, and that might be a good thing. He was a play-maker during spring ball, and lord knows that, over the last four years, he's put in the work to earn some shots on the field.
