Well, at least we have this to help get that bitter taste out of our mouths from the Lee match.

Kirk has some nice things to say about Sullivan, hasn't changed the depth chart standings yet. With the QB room overall being much more competitive than it was last year.

 

[squeezebox]

DL mentions are Allen, Llewellyn, and Pittman are seeing plenty of snaps this spring to be prepared.

Koen Entringer is back and practicing, but not full contact. Sounds like injuries are bare minimum at this point.

Seth Wallace taking over the defense while Phil is recovering is interesting. I wonder if Phil will be on the sidelines week 1?

So the “maturity” of the line only took 5 years on campus. That’s good.

I'm all for the negativity when it's called for, but we are returning the most starters in the BIG, and even a mediocre offense is going to take the hawks places. I'll stay optimistic for now.

With all the experience, the line should have been very, VERY “mature” last season. That’s the reason for the comment - little bit of gaslighting there by ‘ol Kirky.

just my opinion, but the line has as much to do with bad performance as it does with play calling. It is nearly impossible to block 8 in the box when you are running a lead or draw play. I am on record with saying I'm not impressed with Barnett, but I'll give it this year with a new OC and possible misdirection.

Heck let Seth do it for one game.

Will you complain if they are good?

 

[pistachio1999]

By the way Seth Wallace was on the latest WUW podcast. Have not listened yet, but has to be pretty good one.

 

[coorsoriginal02]

Will you complain if they are good?

Of course not, dummy. I want the OL to lead the way to 200 yards rushing and 300 yards passing per game.

But when you start throwing “Maturity” around as a reason for objective improvement, it’s kinda sad considering all the years of game experience this group has.

Usually more experience and training do lead to improved performance.

Well, for being a developmental program, our “development” seems to take quite a long time, don’t ya think?
