a few additional points -
- in Saturday's game 4 of the 6 top tacklers were freshmen - another was a soph --- and that list doesn't include Deuce nor Blair
- our 3 "stars" on offense are a freshman (Cox) and 2 sophs (Price and Kam) - all OLs and backups are all back next year as well as solid receivers ---
A lot of talent coming back and coming in ---

Kam was definitely dinged up a bit in the game though he seemed to bounce back ok.
JLJ is working hard to continue to be a leader even though he isn't starting. It's tough. Gotta be sure we give him the support to finish strong either as the QB on the field or the captain on the sidelines. His leadership is immeasurable!
Peacock left the locker room Saturday with an iced knee. Probably nothing but worth noting. Washington took a major hit to the ribs and still managed to come back. That kid is beyond tough.
Blalock plays better where he is this year. He definitely plays with heart.
Matics was also getting his kicks out of the endzone.
Small isn't small.
Yes, there are things that need to improve. Isn't that true of all of us? Let's get behind these kids and finish strong.
When you meet Daphne, you better bring your "A" game as she knows her football and especially player personnel.
Thanks for the chuckle. I do love my football. I'm also old enough to understand that ups and downs are just part of life. Guess that's one reason a down year doesn't send me into a tizzy like it does some.
