QB or RB for Aycock?

Chamberlain standout Dontae Aycock will land at a Division I-A program. That's not even up for debate. But the question is this: Which position will he play at the next level, quarterback or running back?

Aycock, whom Rivals.com rates as the country's 183rd best prospect for the Class of 2009, is being recruited to play both. Of the five major programs to offer him a scholarship thus far, four of them (Duke, Kansas, USF and Vanderbilt) would like him to play running back. The other, Georgia Tech, is recruiting him as a QB.

An all-county signal caller last fall, Aycock has a better than average arm, but he is only 5-foot-10. And that's probably why many project him to play tailback.

"Most see him probably at running back," Chiefs assistant Brian Turner said. "But I hope someone gives him a chance at quarterback. I think he can play there. He's a very good quarterback."

From what Turner says, Aycock is fine playing at either spot.

"He doesn't care," Turner said. "Whatever gives him a chance to get on the field."
