But I can't run a video of it because my camera has jammed. And the only way to unjam it is to let the battery go dead, then recharge. At that point, I THINK my video from tonight will still be on my camera, but sometimes I get some bad surprises when things like this happen.
Anyway, Allen said he felt "fat" and "dumpy" last year at about 320 pounds. Says he's down around 305 now and is feeling better, trying to be quicker. Says he's been jumping rope more, something he did a lot when he was a wrestler. He says he can surprise some people with his ability to do "doubles" on a jump rope at 300 pounds - something you don't see every day. Awesome party trick (my line, not his).
Says the cookie batter ice cream at the Case Hall cafeteria is a problem for him. Says he can down a gallon all by himself pretty quickly.

I also spoke with Miguel Machado for a while tonight. He's been rotating into the playing group at guard and tackle. Among other things, he says he has been impressed with the true family nature of the team and the o-line. Said Donavon Clark asked him during the winter if he had a coat, and made sure he got one.
