2016 Fall Camp

http://www.gogriz.com/news/2016/8/9/football-spirits-high-on-first-day-of-fall-camp.aspx

"It looked like we've been practicing for ten days. The kids have done a good job this summer, and these new guys have really, really worked on what we're doing."-Stitt

Favorite targets of all three QBs included returners James Homan, Jerry Louie-McGee, Josh Horner and Kobey Eaton.

Some new faces introduced themselves to the QBs nicely as well. Nebraska transfer receiver Lane Hovey looked very much like the heir apparent to Ben Roberts, tracking deep balls with ease, and true freshman Samori Toure made a couple of spectacular grabs.

With a young unit that boasts a potential starting lineup of FBS talent in the secondary, and the preseason Big Sky Defensive Player of the Year in the D-Line, Semore spent the first practice drilling on fundamentals and playing between the ears as well as between the sidelines.

"The thing that we're focusing on more is the intellectual side of the game and taking the ball away. That's our mission in terms of trying to help the offense. That's really what we're focusing on daily," added Semore.

Play of the day-
During the seven-on-seven session at the end of practice, Brady Gustafson found "Z" receiver Caleb Lyons streaking down the middle of the field on a post route. Though only standing 5-9, Lyons made a spectacular leaping grab, having to rotate mid-air and catch the ball behind his body for a 40-plus yard strike.

Will any of these true frosh prove to be too good to redshirt?
An injury to one of the tackles may force one of the Fr into action. Other then that, I think we're too deep at most positions. CB could be the only possible exception.

So are your practices completely closed? I was just surprised there were not more observations from anyone. No BW or anything.

They're open to QB Club members, which I'm a part of, but with them being "closed" I would assume the coaches don't want info from practice posted on egriz.

I am sure they wouldn't want specifics posted but they probably would be OK with stuff like "This team is going to be SCARY GOOD"...

"Obviously I was brought in for a reason," said Davidson before taking the field at Montana's second fall practice Wednesday morning. "We already have an amazing D-line, but I come in here with some size and weight looking to get in there at nose (tackle) and take on some double teams."

Also references both 3-4 and 4-3 packages.

"The Grizzlies, it's the whole atmosphere of football here," he said. "It's crazy here. Talking about the fans and the hard work I see watching some previous games. It's insane."

"Coach Nicholson knew that going into the summer because we had to get his metabolic conditioning up," Semore explained. "Strength is not the problem for him -- he can do the weight room, ya know? -- but we needed to get him ready to play multiple snaps and series."
 
Day 2 write up. Second time freshman receiver Samori Toure has received mention. He was one of the dudes I was most excited about when he signed. Him and Akem are going to be studs for years

Specific quotes from the article:

"In two days, we've installed everything," said head coach Bob Stitt. "We threw a lot at the guys, and we got better today. We'll cut it back tomorrow when we get into pads, but continue to challenge each other to get better."

Quarterbacks Reese Phillips and Chad Chalich continued to split time with starter Brady Gustafson. Favorite targets included returners Keenan Curran, Caleb Lyons and Treshawn Favors. Massachusetts transfer Lamarriel Taylor had another strong day, as did Nebraska transfer Lane Hovey and true freshman Samori Toure.

Play of the day

The combination of Brady Gustafson and Caleb Lyons once again gets the nod for the play of the day. Lyons made yet another circus catch, hauling in a one-handed grab on a corner route and tapping his toes inbounds for a 25-yard ga

It's amazing that on day 2 of fall camp, this team has everything installed. We are so much farther ahead than we were at this time last year, and that's fantastic!

Well that goes without saying, right? And I'm sure they'll light up the scoreboard like a pinball machine too.

Didn't they have everything installed last spring by week 1 with the new system. At this point it's helping the new guys adjust and having the returning guys get more and more comfortable in it.
 
I hope all the offense picks it up better this year. If Brady gets hurt like last year, we need the new QB to run the entire offense instead of the make shift offense put in last year while he was out.

Yes! Toure had possibly the most impressive highlight reel I have ever seen. Play after play. I think he had 16 TDs his senior year. And, several were on "fly sweeps"! He reminds me of.....dare I say it.......Randy Moss. But, I'm betting he still redshirts this year.

My favorite recruit that I saw on the offensive side. He will make some noise I am sure of it. Yes I agree that he will probably redshirt.
