Good lord, how lazy must you be to be a reporter in 24

Pretty disgusting Lundt and offense have had to wait until this off season to having coaches who are "almost perfectionists". What the heck was the previous standard?
I have a low tolerance for WR's who drop passes.
Not excited to see Fortin's name associated with starting OLine.
Hopefully Rosa is out of dog house. Glad to see RB's looking good.
Hopefully Harper can make some plays.

Chin I have heard of a glass half empty . However I haven’t seen to many opinions like yours where the glass is completely empty and shattered on the street.

No expectations = No disappointment

Chin Diesel, unfortunately, is often right on with his takes. This one is discouraging!!

I would like nothing more than to have a bunch of posters here shoving these comments and dropping receipts on me by mid-October. I really want these kids to be well-coached and play well.

Any comments I made from yesterday are me interpreting what others wrote from what they saw or from tweets and news articles.

The Roberson thing was discouraging. As far as we know he's been healthy all off-season and should have clearly separated himself from Fagnano who had to rehab an injury. But it looks like QB is a quandry. I have a ton of doubts that Fagnano has rehabbed and improved enough to be a good D1 QB.
WR's dropping passes. For the life of me I don't know how college WR's get scholarships when they can't hold on to a ball. A WR is pretty much a waste of a scholarship if all they're gonna be is a gunner on ST.
I have no idea what to expect from the OLine other than the two tackles. I would have thought Murawski would be a given up front. I'm also not a fan of Fortin unless he's in a jumbo package. He did pretty good with those but he has been a mess at center and while I concede players improve, I don't think he's ever going to be even serviceable.

New coordinators? Who knows.
LB, DB, ST??? I don't have a clue.

On the bright side the RB room looks good. Of course it looked good going in to last year and that lasted less than 3 weeks.

Its a nothing event in the spring . And a dropped pass this week can be a caught pass in October and vice versa. Each pass is its own little world. And to have a take on a QB off of last year is a bit premature. The summer will tell us more and the games even more.
 
At least in practice Buckman seems like he can make plays. I don’t remember him dropping a lot of balls last year. We are brining in the guy from Purdue who absolutely can make plays. There is the local freshman who has looked solid and the other transfer, Bell, from Wisconsin (?) has looked ok. The running new running back can catch it out of the backfield and with luck Rosa will too. We need our passing attack to take a step forward. Seems like they are trying to get the pieces to do that. I’m more concerned with who will throw to them. I’m not going to worry about guys dropping passes until the games start.

My pessimism stems from the dropped passes in August, September, October and November.

Why don’t you wait for a few meaningful dropped passes first. Last year’s dropped pass is old news as are some of the receivers who dropped some of those passes.

It was absolute bedlam. Stuff just being thrown, you had to dig deep through stuff but it was worth the effort and time. For $100, I got three Matt peart gu jerseys, a real thick hoodie, a soccer warm up jacket and a bb practice jersey. Those three items had tags on them with original prices of $60, $75 and $45.

I don't know if I missed it, but when does the receiver from Purdue get to campus?
