[QUOTE="LibertyTurns, post: 743146, member: 789"] Unlike last year we were ready to play. I’m not sure you could say that a single time last year. Got pretty much what I expected out of the D. The attacking style they demonstrated last year was progressively better this year. They clearly understood their assignments and stayed with the plan. Thacker’s going to work well. Huge change for P’nut and the offense. Everybody was on the same play almost every play which was about 80% different than last year. The execution was obviously much better, QB play a step change better, but the fact that they knew what play they were running, what snap count they were on & understood their assignment was a 180 degree change from last year. The biggest item to me was the change in overall Team discipline. In my 5 decades being a fan, I was never displeased with our Team’s overall level of discipline until last year. It was just out of control- stupid hijinks on the sidelines, the dance routines, and incessant jawing even when we were completely getting our butts kicked. You thought we were trying to be da U on steroids. I saw none of that today. It appeared to be all business, just like I’m accustomed to seeing from a GT team. I’ve been praying all off-season our staff did a gut check & made some massive changes. It looks like they did. You can have fun & not have to run the program like you’re managing a stalag, but you also need to keep the kids under control and focused. We got too wild last year and it cost us. To say I’m pleased with what I saw today in that respect is an understatement. I’m thrilled. I hope it energizes our recruiting. We need it. [/QUOTE]
