Christian McCaffrey aims for bigger and better in 2018

SPARTANBURG, S.C. – Running back Christian McCaffrey is plenty fast, but he doesn’t enjoy playing catch-up.

McCaffrey is all about being prepared – mentally and physically. So last year, having to play catch-up as a result of missing spring practices to finish the semester at Stanford was not ideal.

“That helps a lot – being able to be there in OTAs,” McCaffrey said after reporting to his second NFL training camp Wednesday. “The comfort level is definitely higher.”

Super nice kid. It’s players like him that keep me watching football.
However, younger brother to Michigan... That is hard for this Buckeye to swallow.

His dad Ed, is a great guy.

Seems that character has been well conveyed to his son.

Both parents are great people. When Ed was playing his wife Lisa was interviewed often. She's a real hoot - terrific sense of humor.

They raised their boys right.

I was really looking forward to following him last year. Then the kneelers ruined it for me.
This year, a continuation of my boycott against the millionaire prima donna ungrateful crowd.

His aunt was in my class in high school. Had a huge crush. His father a year older was the quarterback and all around good guy. A great family. We all went to catholic school from K-12.
