Team back at if after a off day.

Kyle Cerge-Henderson let me know he has been cleared and will practice today.

Eric, have you gotten a feel for how the coaches feel about the early enrollees effort through the strength training program and learning since they've gotten here?

Kid has a pedigree, doesn't he?

All has been good...as we all expected they've been impressed with Will Bryan and his passion for the game...Coach Sewak commented that he's lost right now but he's going at 110%.

One I've heard that has impressed is Harland Howell.

Not suprising from film....seemed to like to get after it blocking. Be great if he could give us quality minutes.

 

[NorthGaJacket15]

Thanks for the update! I too would love to see Howell get some minutes this year, that would be big I think!! Good news, thanks!

 

[Yoda]

I've thought Howell would be our next stud on O.

If we burn his shirt he better get more than "minutes".

I understand what you mean, but for skill position guys that could possibly leave early especially with our tendency to have WRs drafted, I would rather see a promising true freshman be the 3rd WR and get playing time than have him redshirt and not get those live reps.

Highlights of the Day: Justin Thomas hit Ricky Jeune in stride down the seam on the first play of 11-on-11 drills for a long touchdown. Later in the same drill, defensive back Lance Austin delivered a big hit on an A-back trying to turn the corner. Honorable mention goes to director of athletics Mike Bobinski showing off some fancy footwork to avoid getting pancaked on the sideline as a pair of players tumbled out of bounds.

QW, in the photos, appears to be a big B back.

I guess the only way he gets rsed is if Messick/Jeune really show up to play. But even then, I have so much faith in Howell. And he's not like Searcy, who I am similarly excited about; Howell is ready now.

Good comments by CPJ on Kallon. Made about 12 tackles, shedding blocks best he has been at GT. That is encouraging news

 

[DrJacket]

I stood next to Quaide today. I was pleasantly surprised. He's a grown man. Ready to go physically, it would seem. Also, I have to say that F Kallon is looking huge. He's something different now this Spring. Real, quality size and he's moving like he's comfortable in his new body.

Jabari looked great and was moving with an agility that explains some of the hype.

I've heard QW has suprised people with how fast/In shape he is. A Source told me she Heard CPJ threatening to Play him over Leggett if he didn't start shaping up.

 

[DrJacket]

He def looks like a player. It's obvious he has put the work in.

I love how Dennis Andrews says being one of the older guys makes him feel like he has to be more accountable.

Wouldn't surprise me.
