LATROBE, Pa. - Seven practices into training camp, Pittsburgh Steelers running back LeVeon Bell is running and cutting without thinking about his surgically repaired knee.And he wants more.While Bell awaits the results of an appeal for a four-game suspension for missed drug tests -- he has declined comment on the dynamics of the case -- the fourth-year player has seen a sizable workload in camp.As long as my knees not swelling or having any setbacks, I will continue to do more, said Bell, who tore his medial collateral and posterior cruciate ligaments in November. My first day running, March 1, I had a vision Id be ready around this time. This is my goal to be out here ready to compete.Getting tackled to the ground is the next step.Bell has even tried to sneak in some reps in the team run, which is typically reserved for third- and fourth-string running backs who take a pounding between the tackles. During Fridays night practice, Bell earned an extra rep in the backs-on-backers drill in which a running back must block a linebacker.When coach Mike Tomlin asked Bell who he wanted to stop, he said, Whoever.And Bell looked like his 2014 self when a backfield cut left outside linebacker Jarvis Jones without what looked like a sure tackle. He has looked fluid in passing drills, even getting a few post routes from quarterback?Ben Roethlisberger.Bell, who leads all NFL running backs with 119 yards from scrimmage per game since 2013, is eager for game action, though the Steelers might opt to keep him out of preseason games.I feel I can protect myself, Bell said. Even jump cutting, if I decide I want to jump over somebody, jump in the end zone, whatever it may be, I feel Ill be able to do all that. My leg feels great.The key for running backs returning from knee injuries is confidence and shaking the fear of getting hurt again. Bell said he dealt with that fear a few months ago, but not now. He said he trained his way out of that mentality.During the players conditioning test July 28, Bell set a tone by running 16 100-yard gassers while the rest of the team ran eight.Bell said he wont complain if he doesnt get any preseason snaps because he knows the Steelers goal is to have Bell for Week 1 -- or Week 5, if the suspension holds.I felt I got all my speed back, Bell said. I wasnt even thinking about my knee at all [Friday]. ... Thats the point I wanted to get to. Cheap Jordan From China .

And when it opened, every player was at his stall. Thats a sure sign that a team is in a slump and is searching for answers. "Its embarrassing to be at home and play the way we did," said defenceman Josh Gorges. Gonzaga will attempt to start 10-0 for the first time since joining the Division I level in 1958-59 when the eighth-ranked Bulldogs host Akron in a non-conference game Saturday.Although Gonzaga is unbeaten and ranked in the top 10, coach Mark Few believes the Bulldogs are far from where he wants them to be. Akron (7-2) is a solid mid-major program that will provide a good barometer for how Gonzaga is progressing after Wednesdays 98-71 win over visiting intrastate rival Washington.A 27-point win should satisfy Few, but he stressed to his team the discrepancy in rebounds, with Washington grabbing 29 offensive boards and out-rebounding the Bulldogs 54-42 overall. That happened despite Gonzaga being known for its frontcourt presence with 7-foot-1 center Przemek Karnowski, 7-0 forward Zach Collins, 6-10 Killian Tillie and 6-9 Johnathan Williams.What I like is I think theres room for growth, Few said. I didnt think the young bigs (freshmen Collins and Tillie) played like they normally have so theres a teaching opportunity there. We didnt quite rebound the way we expect to around here.Collins had only five rebounds in 17 minutes while Tillie mustered one in 15 minutes against the Huskies. Gonzaga outrebounds opponents by 4.6 per game but has been outrebounded by 20 in the last two games against Arizona and Washington.Akron has three players who average at least 5.1 rebounds, led by 6-10 senior forward Kwen Cheatham Jr., who averages 7.0 per game. Isaiah Johnson, a 6-10 senior post player, averages 5.8.Cheatham pulled down a game-high 12 rebounds in the Zips 87-63 win over visiting Coppin State on Wednesday. Akron won the rebounding battle 40-24 in that game while pulling down 11 on the offensive end.Akron coach Keith Dambrot is the reigning Mid-American Conference coach of the year after guiding his alma mater to a 26-9 record. Before his team was defeated by Gonzaga 77-64 in the first round of the 2009 NCAA Tournament, he labeled his program Gonzaga 2009 -- believing it was the next mid-major to establish itself as a power.The Zips, who lost 82-70 at No. 10 Creighton last week, have anotherr opportunity to prove their worth on the road against a highly ranked opponent.dddddddddddd Dambrot is trying to not put as much hype into it as he did going into the NCAA Tournament game against the Bulldogs eight seasons ago.We have to play the same every night regardless of who we play, Dambrot said. We have to play with the same emotion and care about every play every day. If we do that, well get better as a team.If we get better as a team, we can make a turn at this thing.Adversely affecting Akron in its upset bid is the questionable status of junior point guard Noah Robotham, who has missed the last two games with an ankle sprain and is averaging 10.1 points.Robotham played against Gonzaga junior point guard Nigel Williams-Goss when they prepped in Las Vegas -- Robotham with Bishop Gorman High School and Williams-Goss with Findlay Prep. Williams-Goss is coming off a 23-point performance against his former school, Washington, which increased his team-leading scoring average to 13.7.Both Akron and Gonzaga are known for their ability to score. The Zips are averaging 79.8 points per game with Johnson averaging a team-best 15.2 points while shooting 70.3 percent from the field. The matchup between Johnson and Karnowski (averaging 12.2 points and a team-high 6.0 rebounds) will be one to watch.Balance is the key for the Bulldogs, who averaging 85.9 points and feature six players averaging at least 9.7 points and four with more than five rebounds per contest.Were built inside-out, but yet our perimeters can really shoot it, Few said of his teams versatility, most notably senior guard Josh Perkins, who shoots 52.5 percent from 3-point range but also is a playmaker evidenced by his five assists against Washington.Perkins did a great job. He managed the game, just took what they gave him and spread it around, fed the bigs, found the guards for toed-up threes and did a great job of taking care of the basketball (one turnover in 30 minutes against the Huskies).
