AE87, that's an awesome sig. LOL - Milwaukee doin' the way it's supposed to be done!

Quaide Weimerskirch is pretty darn sweet. Doubly so because the hair comes with.

I like the name Swilling. It has a good solid sound, and poetically suggests swaming/swelling/wellling up. Certainly the players bearing it's name were stout. Too bad those guys are no longer on campus. Oh, wait....

We ran some power-I vs Clemson the year we ran the fake FG at home. It was down at the goal line. Wasn't very successful. IMO telegraphed too much. I like lining them up at A back then loading from motion or setting up off motion into broken 'bone. Then run other plays based off the look to mix...

Cooper was pretty funny. What a snag he was. I remember his HS film....big ol boy who ran like a deer. Lightly recruited.

To add to my precious post, the defense I played on in college had one all-american DT and one all conference DT. Having domiment DL that make plays on their own is completely disruptive. Venables first year at Clemson and Saban's first at Bama werent spectacular. Bring in a bumch of 4 & 5-star...

My read is that this year we returned 8 of 11 guys on D, so this year we have a more veteran bunch. Thats going to help you play faster, know your assignments within the system better, and get things fixed more easily. If experience didnt matter no one would keep track of returning starters. We...

I said it in the defense thread....a lot of the improvement is just better fundamentals....tackling, getting off blocks, and covering more effectively, etc. We also appear to be fixing specific execution problems like defending the screen. I do think you saw more slants and stunts vs UNC...

What I'm seeing on game film (UNC, Pitt) vs what we did vs TN is: 1. We are tackling much, much better. Breaking down more consistently, using good form, not gambling wildly to make a big play and let guys off for big yardage. Night and day difference. 2. Defending the screen. TN toasted us...

On the road vs Miami will be tough sledding as it always is. If we get all our OL back I see the line narrowing, maybe to +6.5. If we don't and Miami stays healthy I'm expecting something like +9.5. Miami will have a decided advantage in special teams, and I think their defense is better than...

Quaide and Jerry both have good hands. In his HS film Jerry's team split him out at WR sporadically and he looked very natural catching the ball. Weimerskirch is probably the best-blocking BB we have overall. Howard can probably lead block pretty well if he has the want-to though! What's good...

Maybe it's because we are a more developed, more veteran group of players AND we are being more aggressive/doing some different things schematically. It doesnt have to either or. I see both players winning one on one battles and stunts/alignments working. Definitely improved tackling. Really...

IMO two things did CCG in. First, his style of offense was boring to watch. Second, it took him a long time to get the recruiting rolling. Johnson was able to average 10 wins in his first two seasons and beat UGA with Gailey's players. This bought him more time than was afforded Gailey to...

I just re-watched the Tennessee game, and I really felt our defense played well enough to win the game. Tennessee basically stole the game by (1) not turning the ball over/not committing penalties, (2) capitalizing on two fumbles which are huge in a limited possession game, (3) two missed GT...

This is classic opposing coach attempting to plant seed in the officials' minds. We'll see how well it works. We've seen some sketchy chop block penalties in the past (and some reasonable but clearly accidental, and no more in number than the other team gets against us). Yes Ricky pushes off...

Gantt looked good in the passing game in the final spring scrimmage. Quick enough to get open and sure handed. I am not particularly worried about him. He'll get his chance and I think he'll excel at that time.

Fun to see the twins flying around and making plays in their senior season. They are little cans of whoopus!

IMO Tenuta's defenses were best against pro-style offenses. They stopped the run and put pressure on the QB when they worked, which was a lot of the time. Just my opinion, but the advent of the spread and the ubiquitous speeding up on offense limits a lot of the complexity that one can deploy...

Put a lot of dudes on the ground. Didn't get as many rushing opportunities because he blocked so damn well. Such a high character, team-guy he probably enjoyed it just the same.

I posted above about Quaide in a positive light so it wouldn't surprise me if he does well.
