With scheme you cannot stop all of what is in CPJ's bag of tricks. You can decide to stop certain things (gamble we cannot beat you with the pass, or the unproven BB, or make the QB pitch or beat you with the run) but if the GT O is executing you are in trouble. The best D is where you cover the...

Probably two reasons: ACL injury recovery is obvious reason and takes more than a year (note Cottrell also got one carry last year) and CPJ's comments about his drastic maturing and accountability during the past year. CPJ was quite emphatic about how young players have to mature into this...

The D frosh, Askew, Roof, and Swilling, are likely to play STs anyway. I suspect they will not "roll in and out" but may see some limited duty due to situation. I do not know what to think of the frosh OL players getting PT unless being on the depth chart is just establishing the pecking order...

In general they do not think much of our O.

Interesting "worrisome" commment from Tankersely about two freshmen in the D2 OL. For some time now with Marshall hurt there have only been 8 schlorship OL players on the roster. It has not been THAT we have two freshmen on the D2, it has been WHICH freshmen? Maybe more worrisome is that 3 of...

If needed I think Sanders is a candidate but with Messick, Dolphus, and Camp behind the starters and with CPJ saying we might predominantly only play 3 WRs I believe Sanders will play only if he makes STs.

Absolutely short term, and if long term it will be who is strongest performer, Brad Morgan at G or one of the OT backups because Devine is only a spot player.

I think 3 or 4 more frosh on STs not currently on depth chart, a LB agree with 1-5 but 6 and 7 not a surprise.

I would like to sustain some of the goals CPJ has accomplished: respect for the program because of its integrity and academics tough hard nosed and unique type of play most do not really want to play us we are not afraid of any team and have a chance to win any game we do not quit in games our...

He actually played ST.

Short term it is more likely Devine (by moving Bryan over to OT) will backup Stick. Long term could be a frosh.

Walk-on. Third year in the system. Started on D2 OL last two spring games. Durable and knows where to go. Lots of practice reps. I believe his Father played at GT. No real surprise.

Hope your report on Stickler and the Morgans is accurate. This is the difference maker for the season IMO.

Gray played safety and QB in HS. In the playoff championship game he played both ways the whole game (which they lost) and was totally gassed in the 4th quarter. Until then he had played a great game and carried his team on his back.

Benson will be OK but he does not run like Mills. He hunts for a place to run and if the hole is there he goes. If not he slides and looks and takes a loss or no gain. He has big play potential but I would rather see Howard if we need short tough yards. Benson had poor blocking in HS and he...

Mills had trimmed down to 214 to start camp and Benson is reported at 215. Size is important but not at the top of the list for a good RB. No doubt Benson is faster based on his HS performances in track.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Brady get a few snaps early if Benson is banged up. He is a tough kid and he knows the plays. I have no doubt Benson/Quaide/Howard will be going good by mid season and would not be surprised to see Jerry take over by Bowl time.

That would be new exciting news but what makes you think one of the Morgans is ahead of Lee?

You are right in that the Morgans are listed as C and G but before Marshall got hurt CPJ was asked about Scott's progress as a backup center and CPJ replied: "Marshall is the backup center and Scott is competing for playing time at OT". I have not heard anything else along those lines but with...
