  1. Fan Day 2015 Roll Call!

    Will be there with alum daughter, son-in-law, and grandson. Are voucher e-mails expected for season ticket holders to get in early?
  2. Improvements desired for 15

    Completely agree about T Lewis at LB and the toughness of Gotsis at DT. I expect Simmons and/or Whitehead to be a factor in certain situations. We should enjoy some fresh legs in our pass rush for a change.
  3. Questions for CPJ & Players

    How is the ballhandling with the new players (mesh with BBs and pitches to ABs)? We had tons of success with this last season late, is the unbalanced OL a quasi-gimmick for surprise or is it now a part of our O with multiple plays? Besides Snoddy who is showing out at AB? Will Justin be...
  4. Lamont Simmons (DB)

    I agree. Gamble may play inside or outside this year but next year we need him inside for sure. Also agree LB will be a brighter spot next season.
  5. 100 Days

    Tyler made a couple of good plays in the Spring Game and showed considerable enthusiasm on the field. He seemed to be really having fun. Such pep and enthusiasm from our walk-ons is yet another contribution they make to the success of our team. I saw the same sideline enthusiasm and...
  6. Nice JT interview

    He often mentions he and CPJ are on the same page. There is a constant theme from both: (1) winning, (2) team, and (3) day by day getting better. Justin consistently stays on point and often deflects comments about his own accomplishments back to those three themes....a real mature trait.
  7. Who are our 1-8s ?

    PJ Davis has to be there too.
  8. CPJ @ ESPN 'Car Wash' Monday

    One of the seasoned players told me that CPJ was a straight shooter, would tell you the good and the bad, and you could always believe what he told you. He also said that he had changed a lot in 4/5 years. He was more personable and more involved with the players, and most especially was way...
  9. OL Competition: Players 5 through 11

    There will likely be a scrimmage on Aug 15 or 22 when we can see for ourselves how Devine is progressing. Hope he is where we all wish him to be. (However, it is wishful thinking that those daylight Sept games are played in 70 degrees.)
  10. Running Right vs Running Left

    Maybe teams have gotten so aware of the rocket toss that they are too quick to move outside leaving the BB dive more open, such as in the OB. Hopefully a little Allen and Skov concern will give the ABs more room outside. Can't wait to see.
  11. Running Right vs Running Left

    In the hayday of the true wishbone the defensive "word" was to force (D numbers to the wide side) the option to the short side of the field. I believe CPJ prefers to outnumber the D and will often run option to the short side if the D gives it to him with less numbers. I personally prefer the...
  12. Another A-back Discussion

    The following "what if" scenerio would solidify our BBs and really plus up our AB situation for 2015: Allen and Skov perform up to starter expectations early L-Davis is as good as expected and looks good early Weimerskirch, although coming off injury and likely a RS candidate, has proven from...
  13. Running Right vs Running Left

    Another theory: After you run right the ball is on or near the right hash mark. If the defense is covering the field with unsymmetrical defense we run right because of counting the numbers. If the defense is symmetrical our bias is to run right. "caution flags breed more caution flags".
  14. Predicted depth chart

    I once made 20 out of 100 on a final and it was curved to a C. Thank goodness for all those 10s and zeros.
  15. Running Right vs Running Left

    I agree. Most offenses are not symmetrical. Ours is normally symmetrical. Some defenses line up unsymmetrical and some symmetrical (hash mark position has some impact). I suspect we more often run right against symmetrical defenses, hence the bias toward running right.
  16. Another A-back Discussion

    I agree. Even though we are a little short in numbers, and especially experience, CPJ has enough to get producton from these 2015 ABs. I am more unsettled about 2016 where we have a record number of talented ABs (at least 10 and likely more because we will also be overloaded with quality...
  17. Another A-back Discussion

    CPJ indicated that while he was comfortable with the AB situation, some had specific talents that he might utilize in their best roles. I am including Willis as a scholly AB in this discussion. In 2013 we used 8 ABs in rotation ( Bostic, Zenon, Andrews, Days, Snoddy, Perkins, Hill, and...
  18. OL Competition: Players 5 through 11

    I clearly stated that I thought Devine/Brown would hold on to the RG position. The "if" has to do with Devine's stamina in the heat in August/September where his track record is an "if". The post Spring Game depth chart is a snap shot in time, does not account for injuries/player...
  19. OL Competition: Players 5 through 11

    Agree with Burden. Chamberlain, Braun, and Joe not far behind. Got a chance to talk with Burden at the CFHOF the other night. He is a polite, personable, smart young man looking to graduate in Dec or possibly May.
  20. OL Competition: Players 5 through 11

    If we are looking for the best 5 O linemen we are only looking for one more than these four: Chamberlain, Braun, Burden, and Joe. Competition is among Marshall, Fromayan, Devine, Brown, Klock, Bryan, and outside shot Stickler. If Devine or Brown are in the top 2 of the 7 in competition for...
