Bit late posting but...

Some insight on Spring Game...
>> "We're either going to play an offense vs. defense with full game, full special teams but with a convoluted point-scoring system, which produces production on defense, positive and negative production, which produces additions and subtractions and positive and negative on offense, which produces pluses and minuses. Or we're going to have what we would consider to be a collection of the top evaluated players against the rest." <<
... and who has been standing out so far:
>>Diaco said he has been impressed with the play of four players: freshman receiver Thomas Lucas from Silver Springs, Md.; receiver Geremy Davis; sophomore safety Obi Melifonwu and junior defensive tackle Julian Campenni. As a group, Diaco said the receivers are probably the most solid but he gave an endorsement to the defensive line
"There's going to be six guys that can roll in and out of there and at a minimum function and even be able to perform and produce," Diaco said. "There's not that incredible disparity like there are at a few positions. You have [senior Angelo Pruitt, senior B.J. McBryde, freshman Folorunso Fatukasi, junior Kenton Adeyemi and sophomore Mikal Myers]. You've got some guys who can roll into the game and not have it look much different."<<
