SF Examiner: Both Shane Vereen and Jahvid Best working on different goals right now

By Rob Calonge

During the season and any offseason football-related activity, it's obvious that Cal's top tailbacks are in sync with their objectives.  Jahvid Best and Shane Vereen are both highly talented players that can step up their games when asked to and take a backseat when it's required. Whatever it takes for the team to win.

While both men compete with each other for playing time and the biggest play of the day, their personal competition isn't carried out with any negative impact. Right now, each of them are working for different goals.  Best is working on getting healthy after undergoing two surgeries at the end of the season and Vereen is working on getting faster after the shot of a pistol.

Best, due to foot and elbow surgeries, missed spring camp.  He began running in the middle of April and has stated that he's about 85 percent ready to compete again.
