White Working to Remove All Doubts

**Xknight52** · May 3rd, 2007, 09:51 PM

Titans RB LenDale White has deal with questions concerning his dedication and attitude since before he was drafted. Despite the Titans drafting RB Chris Henry in the second round, he is preparing himself to be the Titans #1 RB entering this season. "In my mind, I feel like I am going to be the guy. And I am not going to give the coaches any reason to think otherwise," White said. "I know Chris is probably going to come in with the same mind-set, but I know the system and I know what the NFL is about. I am not saying I am a super-vet, but I have been around and I have seen Travis Henry, who taught me a lot. If they want a two-back system so be it, but I am planning on being the guy and I plan on leaving no doubt about it. And I have never run from competition. I have been dealing with that all my life."

Glad he has now said it but now it's time to show it on the field. Chris Henry will get carries to, so I see a split back system.

Henry was possibly the worst pick in the whole draft. LenDale looking like the fridge is probably still better.

I can't believe that the guy has never been the starter in high school or college. They said he only had like 800yds total at AZ. That's crazy for a second round pick.

Sounds like Henry squared.

Let me rephrase, was never good enough to be the full time starter and I also cheated him out of 89 yards. He had 889 in four years.

Same thing with Julius Jones at Notre Dame... he did not start but look what he has done for the Cowboys.

What?

**sup-rbeast** · May 4th, 2007, 12:49 PM

Julius ran into some trouble midway through his years at ND...but to say he didn't start??..Are you on crack?...His final year Ty Willingham tried to punish him but he ended up as the starter midway through the season anyways.
