Fall camp reviews

Unread post by AppFan11 » Thu Aug 25, 2022 4:42 pm

Man are these lame or what? These used to be position reviews… where they would go more in depth… position by position . It hard to from detail to so general that it’s really meaningless. You give props when they’re due and some criticism when it’s called for…. On a scale of 1-10 with 10 the best…..a solid 3.

As much as I loved those older ones, I think they included WAY too much info. I'm kinda glad we're keeping things a little closer to the chest. I've noticed that Shawn is a little like Belichick in interviews. He has the coach speak down and doesn't say too much.
WE ARE YOSEF!

Really…. there are ways to shoot the videos to not “reveal” too much as far as formations…. but personnel is personnel… we have no secret weapons no five star kids…. anybody can look at the last couple of seasons on YouTube and get a pretty good idea of what we run and how…. I’d say it’s more lazy… probably better if not doing it at all. Look it’s also a way to promote the kids.

I've been watching various videos from camp/practice over the last few weeks & I keep seeing our WRs go up and make some wild catches. That definitely has me even more excited to see that talent develop and show out throughout the upcoming season!

Maybe turnover in this area is showing

Over the past several years folks would post the gloom and doom after we lose certain guys- like we will go 4-8 and have to rebuild. We seem to really have some talent that is simply waiting for opportunities. Your hope is that when the lights turn on these dudes can still make the plays. It's one thing in practice with no fans watching but it's totally different on a loud ass Saturday

One thing that some might notice is the difference between how Stroman catches the ball versus everyone else. It’s nothing spectacular mind you, but it’s one of those things that looks so natural and effortless that it just stands out.

We likely rank about 130 in this department.

That’s a rhetorical question, correct?

One thing I haven’t seen or heard mentioned much is our kicker. Been used to not having to worry much about PAT and FG for several years now.
Can anyone give a rundown on who it is and the outlook? The young man from WVA maybe?
Games could come down to whoever it is going to be.

It’s Hughes. The kid from WV. Big leg but working on consistency. He’ll be fine.

For some reason I always feel a bit nervous on a FG attempt.
