Stahl Settling in at Center

Posted Aug 10, 2008

Butch Davis termed Aaron Stahl’s move to center in the spring as an “experiment,” but the Venice, Fla. product has adjusted quickly to the position change and has emerged as the front-runner. Davis expected Lowell Dyer and Stahl – both red-shirt juniors – to compete for the starting role in the middle during training camp, but less than two weeks in, Stahl is running with the first-team offensive line.
