Bounds to receive plenty of help on offense

Helping to make freshman quarterback E.J. Bounds’ life a lot easier this season will be the likes of Desmond Hervey and Chris Conard at receiver.

Both juniors are expected to step up on offense and assume larger roles this season.

Last season, Hervey caught just two passes for six yards, while Conard hauled in five for 98 yards and three scores.

But if this past weekend is any indication of how the season will play out, both Hervey and Conard could factor greatly into the team’s passing attack. (July 12, 2010, Page 7)
