Football today!

Good turnout for this - helps that the weather is ideal.

And yes, the defense looks brutal as anticipated.

Scott needs to work on securing the ball better or he will have issues during real games.

 

[huskymedic]

Nice play by Fortt:

You would think the team would bulk up in the off season but they didn't. I saw Mizzou last year and physically it looked like men's against boys. I couldn't believe the size and bulk of their legs

Believe me I hope I’m wrong. But I think the d is going to be historically bad again.

We have a significant depth issue... some very nice and then some nice pieces but not enough of them.

 

[Chin Diesel]

Crowd shots look good.

Yes, there are 5-10 programs that will sellout the spring game.

Another 15-20 will get 15k-30k.

Some will get less than 100.

Looks like 1500-2000 from pics????

 

[huskymedic]

Off McAfee.

 

[huskymedic]

Kyle Buss has had a very nice game... could be a big factor in slot.

 

[BugsyCT]

Maybe 3-4 thou here max, includes the tailgaters

 

[huskymedic]

Piendel w/ rushing TD to cap it off...

... and another +50 FG by Tarbutt as time expires.

Iced Tarbutt twice and drilled a 54 yarder. Would have been good from near 60.

I said he absolutely looked terrific in warmups. Booming kick everywhere high into the net.

How’s the attendance?

I thought the attendance was great. Maybe 5K to 6K? Most fun blue-white I have been to since 2010.

I base that on those present at the half or so. Thinking the pix that show sparcity were taken early.

Looks they were trying to mix Terry in closer to LOS.

Fraid so.

 

[Chief00]

You also have Atkins and Freeborn out and not in today’s rotation...

It’s a major issue - please don’t rossy colored glasses this DL deficiency.
I predict Randy will move a redshirt OL player to defense - either the kid from FL or DC. Jones will have to ramp up fast.

[uconnbill]

Tarbutt was my mvp today with hitting a 54 and 46 yard field goal with ease.

The offensive player is Pindell who looked the part throwing and running the ball.

Defense could be a few players.
I like what Eddie Hahn, Fortt, and Coyle all looked good and are a solid foundation for the upcoming season.

The offensive line needs work but not sure if that was the defense doing things or the line not picking up the pass rushers.

I can't wait till August 30th and ucf.

 

[Chief00]

That’s what 4.3 can do.

Off McAfee.

Crocker should have requested McAfee play the whole game.

If he was going to move Holmes or Hubbard from OL to DL why wait till summer camp?

Generally, the further from the line of scrimmage your defensive MVP is - the greater the problem the defense has in execution.

 

[Stainmaster]

If he was going to move Holmes or Hubbard from OL to DL why wait till summer camp?

And if DE is obviously the weaker of the two spots, why move one of two guys who are obviously not sized to play anything other than NT?

Maybe the kid from New London has surprised on the upside but more importantly they need size with some athletic ability. We will be asking a lot of Jones early - which is tough for a freshman.
