Nope. He did not go past 3 yards beyond the LOS. He stopped just short of 3 yards.

You are absolutely right. you indirectly help the other coach without embarrassing him by running the clock, not letting up. Running the clock is a winning strategy and not a finger in the eye.

My preference would be to try some of these quicker LBs. Maybe they can find the ball, shed blocks, and cover receivers. Our recent LBs have not met high goals so lets do something different. With smaller guys taking lots of hits you need depth and that we have. (With some redshirts and...

Curry? Where do you see Carpenter and Showell playing?

At DE Merriweather made some plays in the Spring Game and Vernon caught CPJ's eye ("in on a lot of plays") but I do not know how far behind the top 3 DEs they are. Agree about Branch and comments on C Henderson. Hopefully Adams can play a bigger role. My pick for DL standout performances this...

You are right. The summer workouts help individuals improve their conditioning and fundamental techniques but it takes the whole team under coaching leadership to fine tune the snaps, meshes, audibles, noise, timing, footwork, pitch relationship, and choreography (as you say). This typically...

Clever response. Thanks. I'm not fretting about the QB situation because I know there will be a good outcome, whatever it is. However I am putting in my off season work worrying about the PAT/FG kicker and holder, the LB play, and the OL backups where the outcome is way more uncertain..

Those of us as fans and those of us on message boards learn some things about our QB candidates, but on an every day basis coaches on the field (in this case CPJ and input from his coaches) see and hear things that folks on the sidelines, in the stands, or on message boards are not privilaged...

Both Jones and Johnson redshirted in 2016. T Marshall has not redshirted as yet.

Definite Pros: AB BB DB WR Overall depth LS Pros: Starting OL if it stays healthy DEs Cons in the form of questions to be answered: DT we finally have the numbers and some size and experience but how well do they perform and who steps up? LB we have the numbers and some experience but who...

IMO the offense will be OK against Tn. Key to the game is how is our D? We need a 2016 VT or Kentucky game on D.

Kick coverage should be good. In addition to some good returning ST coverage players such as Lewis, JJohnson, Campbell, Jackson, Benson, Kagawa, Cottrell, and the Austins there are 10 freshmen candidates to choose from (although I hope most RS). Where we need improvement is in KO returns. In...

QBs that play in the Tn game may be determined by who is 100% healthy, rather than having a winner for the job, after 4 weeks of grueling competition....since at this point ''all are doing well" and about even in performance as far as we know. A good situation to be in! And TN has no idea which...

Absolutely. And those big inside plays can come at any time from anywhere on the field. Having to scheme to stop those big plays has to open up other things. Look for big plays this year from our O.

Yep, the two 50+ yard TD runs up the middle combined with the turnovers won us a game that was otherwise a game that could have gone either way.

Harvin is likely the punter but there was a good showing by the place kicker in the Spring Game so I suspect competition in Fall Camp is on for King. One may kick off and the other could kick the short to medium field goals. As you say time will tell us more in the Fall.

Yes, and the MLB overcommitted to the outside. #6 way overplayed to the outside. Playside safety probably played his assignment as coached. IMO #6 way too concerned with Lynch. He was unblocked and should have made the tackle.

I also give some credit to Lynch who drew respect from 3 defenders who pursued him to the outside, taking themselves out of position to make a play. #4 is closing down inside hard as he took the BB fake and he cannot stop (and he is tangled with A Marshall) to do anything with MJ.

AB for Marshall might make sense if he were to RS this year. That would put him in position to be the #3 AB his RSJR year (behind Lynch and Searcy) and maybe #1 AB his RSSR year. Without a RS he would be no better than #4 AB this year and #3 next year. And all these projections assumes he can...
