Hey gang. So far in our
"Backyard Ballers" we've had two from S.C. and just Monday my
fellow friends here at C-cubed did a great job interviewing Wake Forest WR Mike
Campanaro.
Today I'm
going to take a look at a guy who has a lot working against him - small school,
unsexy position, and learning a new position in the NFL.
Dakota
Dozier played left tackle at tiny Furman University - it's a small school in
the upstate of South Carolina which has actually been a powerhouse over the
years in their area of the pond.
Like many
smaller-school tackles, Dozier is a guy who projects as a guard in the NFL.
Remember, Amini Silatolu was the same way from Midwestern State and each season
the NFL sees several college tackles coming in being drafted as interior
linemen.
