Sounds good if he comes back!




If Ricky Williams were to return to the Dolphins, new coach Nick Saban said he would use him differently than former coach Dave Wannstedt did. Wannstedt ran Williams like a plow horse for two years, something that Williams said contributed to his decision to retire last summer.

"I think he would be very effective with what we're talking about, maybe more effective," Saban said.

"I don't think you have to play `wad ball' for him to be effective. You know what `wad ball' is? Everybody gets wadded up in a pile in the middle of the field and you plunge it into the middle of it and let him run over everybody.

I don't think you have to play `wad ball' for him to be effective. You know what `wad ball' is? Everybody gets wadded up in a pile in the middle of the field and you plunge it into the middle of it and let him run over everybody.

Well, your definition of "wad ball" and everyone else's definition might be a little different.

I think most people call that "Smashmouth" football. I still doubt he's coming back, and if he does I don't know if he'd be as good.
