My two cents;
From someone who has been kinda close to things on occasion. I've really watched in detail how the BIG BOYS are being handled. Answer, very carefully. I can say WE now
We have a crap load of YOUNG talent. You cannot really judge anything based of those Spring Practices. What you can judge is that most everything was Vanilla. Basically shaking off winters rust before Summer workouts. (we all know that) We have 4 seniors and LOTS of Young ins... Don't forget, there are plenty of bumps and bruises out there to. we just can't see them. (maybe that's why we aren't seeing some of the boys) One thing these coaches wont do prior to FALL is, Jack up the future. THIS IS TRUTH.
This coming up season offensively depends big time on the trenches. Those boys are working hard.
The key to OUR O- LINE success 2017? The depth they create with this youth.
We will see these kids this Fall! 2016 recruits will be on that field this year in many aspects.
What a lot of people don't realize is, these boys are getting used to a whole different world here. Balancing school and the demanding football schedule. I'm not making excuses or sugar coating things. Just showing some reality. !! They know why they are there. TO PLAY FOOTBALL.
There are your freaks of nature that start as true freshman and Red-Shirts. It happens and fulfills the I WANT IT NOW PEOPLE!!! lol However,this stuff takes time. Look at Angel! That dude is going to anchor this youth! There's a good solid BAD ASS kid!!! Who's to say any of these young guys wont be out there after Fall? Angel did last year?
THIS FALL is when the crap will hit the fan . You'll see some of these 2016 big boys start to shine!!! They will see both competition at practice and play time.
The boys are going in early for summer work outs . They will be ready to compete!!!
DEPTH DEPTH DEPTH
My Kool-Aid is at full strength at the moment.
GO GRIZ!!
