[!--quoteo--][div class=\'quotetop\']QUOTE[/div][div class=\'quotemain\'][!--quotec--]"I’m always there to make a big play, but I’m a receiver, too," Ginn said. "So if I get a 20-yard gain, that’s a great play. I just want guys to know that I’m going to be that guy that you can count on (at) any time of the game."
To get from "occasionally dazzling playmaker" to "reliable for 8 yards on third-and-7," Ginn has worked hard on his weaknesses coming to college — mainly, route running.
He said he can tell he’s improved in that area by how practices are going lately.
"Because I’m getting open," he said. "Guys are telling me, ‘Your routes are getting right, getting crispy, your timing is right.’ So I enjoy that. Guys are letting me know that I’m doing good, and I’m glad that I am."
Coach Jim Tressel concurred.
"I think that’s something he’s gotten better and better at," Tressel said. "Now I think you’d have to characterize him as an excellent route runner if you study the film." [/quote]
Link <--If what Tressel says is true, and I have to believe it is because generally means what he says, that's going to be huge for this offense this season. That's always been the knock on Ted, is that he was a poor rout runner. With his raw ability and now if he's a good rout runner, it's going to be very difficult to cover him.
