Running back Chris Taylor enters his last preseason camp as a Hoosier. In 2004, Taylor played in all 11 games and finished the season with 329 yards on 82 carries. In the backfield for the past two years, Taylor has averaged 4.0 yards per carry.
Taylor is keeping an online journal on IUHOOSIERS.com of preseason camp. Below is his fourth entry after Thursday's practice:
Today was a light day, but we went full speed. We went against the scout team today and kept on preparing for Central Michigan.
I think the scouts gave us a great look today. Everyday they are instrumental in helping us get ready for the next opponent.
Against Central Michigan, we are going to have to execute. We have a lot of talent on our team, we just have to make the plays. I really believe that if we can do that, we can beat anybody.
The offensive-line is making some great improvements. They are really going to be one of this team's strengths this year. They have their blocks down. They are executing their plays and making holes for backs and protecting the quarterback.
On the running side of the game, you can expect a lot of production. The backs are playmakers and have a lot of talent.
Overall, it was a good day for us out here. We are getting a lot of work and learning. After practice, we have lunch and team meetings. We are going to go over today's practice and keep on preparing for Central Michigan.
