An interesting tryout prospect

Another one of the players who will work out with the Bucs this weekend is former Fresno State running back Clifton Smith.

Smith led the Bulldogs last season in all-purpose yards with 1,367 -- 317 of those coming on punt returns. That last part is perhaps why the Bucs want to take a look at the 5-8, 190-pound Fresno native who averaged 105.2 all-purpose yards per game. As a running back, he rushed for 654 yards, averaging 6.2 yards per carry. And he was productive as a receiver out of the backfield, catching 33 passes for 352 yards.

I'm told we might get a complete list of the camp participants by late this afternoon. If so, we'll pass it along because I know the suspense is killing you!
