I take back what I said about Johnny Stanton. He is erratic. Maybe the worst. They need to lose a QB or two anyway. Get some more reps to the top guys. There's no secret at Qb. It's probably Tommys right now but it's only a matter of time. AJ just has such a high ceiling. The wind probably had something to do with it but qbs struggled again today. Coaches better have a plan for Nov and Dec.
Like the looks of the offense. Tons of different screens. Jet sweeps. Heavy use of TE. The FB is back here and there. Not going to lie but it does have a when Billy C took over vibe. We don't have the guys we need yet. I will say this though. We have way more at the WR spot than when Bill made the transition. And Tommy and AJ are better than Dailey but there's some def ugliness with the offense right now. Qb s are not very accurate. Need to make big strides.
Coaches
Mike is def CEO. Does very little coaching. I think he prides himself in making good hires and then he trusts those guys to get the job done. Everything u hear about him is true. Took a pic with me and actually didn't like the background. Made us move where the lighting was better. And he smiled.
Langsdorf. Very cerebral guy. Hammers fundamentals. Very very good with qbs. Could see him being a head coach someday soon. Just has that aura about him.
Coach cav. He's fun to watch. Drops F bombs left and right. Gets after them big guys but they love him. I think the o line is in good hands.
Coach Williams. Absolutely hilarious. Talks trash to the dbs. All in fun. All the players gravitate towards him. Says he has 8 guys in NFL. He worried me a bit when he talked about not focusing too much on blocking but he knows how to get his guys open.
Didn't see enough of Davis, Banker, Hughes, to comment.
Read is strictly ST. pretty crazy to not see him coach anything else. He pretty much just cruises around during the rest of practice. Better have amazing special teams. There is a stronger focus and more teaching going on during specials.
Bray seems like an up and comer. Young enthusiastic and full of energy. Demanding. Didn't watch a lot of lbs.
Coach stewart was coached by Brays dad. He is very smart and has tons of expirience. Talked about working with Juinor Seau. He's been around the block and then some. Great hire IMO. It's amazing to see the background of most of these coaches. This guy for examole has 8 years of NFL exp.
Practicing with 120 people is def a learning expirience for this staff. I personally don't think they have it figured out yet. Lot of standing around. One thing Bo's staff did well was utilize every second of practice time they got. Mike has some work to do.
Overall u can tell this staff has a calm, quiet confidence. They have been around the block, know their craft, and aren't overwhelmed by the expirience. These are all things that Bo's staff lacked. With that being said I really like the staff. Good guys. Humble. (Unlike many of Bo's guys). Very willing to talk with coaches. Not too big time for us if that makes since. I'm pretty sure Coach Fisher thought he was the coolest person in the state. The only thing that worries me is the offense. Can it work at NU? I think if it's heavy on the run and we get really good at that we will be in good shape.
Random player shout outs. G Nabity does look really good. No joke. So did A ROSE. I Think K Williams will start at safety. Stud. Freedom will provide help at DE this year. Mick S looks like he's going to be a beast. M Wilbon looked really good today as both Newby and Taylor were out. Not a burner but broke some ankles today. Deep deep WR and DB core. There's like ten guys at each position I could see playing. Bondi needs to go. Just tired of seeing him walk around. Punter needs to stop cutting his pants. Gross.
Can't think of anything else. Most of this stuff is old news. Feel free to ask ?s. Sorry for any typos. Too lazy to proof read.
