Analysis:Zach Laskey had an impressive 12 carries for 116 yards and a touchdown against Presbyterian, including a 56-yard scamper. He'll find the sledding much tougher this week, but with an impressive performance, Laskey could put some distance between himself and the injured David Sims.
News:Zach Laskey will start in place of David Sims on Saturday against Presbyterian, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Analysis:Zach Laskey showed some toughness between the tackles last Monday at Virginia Tech, and is a reasonable bet to find the endzone this week against the FCS opponent. With Sims out, and Charles Perkins forever in head coach Paul Johnson's doghouse, Laskey could flirt with 15 or so touches.
News:Zach Laskey is listed as the second-team B-Back on the team's new depth chart, notes the Atlanta Journal Constitution.
Analysis: Starting B-Back David Sims has seen very little of the field this fall while aggravating a stress fracture injury. Zach Laskey can now be taken in the last round of ACC heavy drafts as he could potentially be stealing Sims' job.
News:Zach Laskey stood out in the first scrimmage of fall camp, the Atlanta Journal Constitution reports.
Analysis: No stats were released, but head coach Paul Johnson was impressed, stating that Zach Laskey is "definitely" pushing Charles Perkins for the second spot on the B-Back depth chart. It's interesting that there is no mention of David Sims (stress fracture surgery) losing his starting role here. Sims plodded his way to seven scores last year, and it seems as though Laskey has a bit more playmaking potential. Add Laskey to your deep sleeper list for now, and monitor this situation for the next few weeks; it could get interesting.
