Coach Joe Bugel's first message to '97 fourth-round draft pick Chad Levitt was this: "Hello, Chad, you're a fullback." As a tailback at Cornell, Levitt rushed for 4,657 yards and 44 TDs, both second best in Ivy League history, but Oakland thinks his 6'1", 236-pound frame is well suited to blocking and bashing. That means a role reversal for Levitt. "As a tailback my job was to avoid defenders," he says. "Now they want me to run into them."
