He's pretty red there. Most of us change from white to red, Kelly goes from red to purple. To critique his purple face is to be racist.

to assume that most of the people you're talking to are white is racist.

Um, Guys, how did we go from Coach Kelly's brolic to racism, in three posts?

And, as Sheldon Day and I ran into each other, face to face, I can tell you from earlier posts, the kid is SOLID. I mean one knott of muscle, three inches shorter than big Lou, but massive.

It must be from the Honey Buns that Sheldon made Big Lou pick up when they went to the warehouse club.

I think that it is fair to say that was staged. What makes that really funny, as an inside joke, is that Sheldon is as serious as a heart attack about doing things to improve his game. And he is about as drive as the snow (from an Alberta Clipper), to succeed. Big Lou on the other hand . . .

Not sure if my father is a 6'7" orange lumberjack, but I could be mistaken. I haven't really seen Tony that much since he graduated, but he looks huge with that hair and beard. I mean he was big when we played together, but Dang, longo is really putting in some work with him

Wouldnt mind Springmann surprising us a little this year. I know we have some stud DL in the starting positions, but Springmann hasnt really stepped up, but he is still young. Would love Stockton to live up to his rating as well, but that is a long shot. Really would like to have quality depth behind Tuitt, Nix, and KLM, that is what championship teams have.

Tony was competing for playing time with Ian Williams last fall if i remember correctly. They gave the nod to Ian primarily because of experience and seniority, but it is still a pretty big accomplishment for a true freshman. I fully expect him to show up within the next two season, and play well. Along with that, I expect some great nicknames with his lumberjack physique and bright orange hair once he is better known.

This is a puzzling statement. I could understand saying this about a player who has been on the team for a few years and hasn't contributed, but seems like a weird accusation to make about a player who just finished his freshman year, especially a lineman.

You're thinking of someone else. Ian Williams and Springmann have never played on the same team. And there's no way that Ian would have lost out to Springmann.

Let us try to untangle this. Springman was a freshman last year and they elected to keep his fifth year of elgibility. He was battling Sean Cwynar behind Louis Nix. Sean Cwynar was splitting time and took over for Ian Williams when he went down in Kelly's first year; or in English two seasons ago.

Springman is one of those guys, because the coaches shut him down on elgibility, that people may have thought may not be a performer. Wrong.

I think you are just over analyzing my words. I havent really heard much about him during Spring practice. No need to get all puzzled on me...

guys...nose guard is a very difficult position to look good at...many times at that position, no news is good news. meaning if you're doing your job it's mum, but you only get attention when you screw up...that's the world of playing interior D line and O line

big lou is an exception and that's why he will play on sundays.

I don't think I'm over analyzing anything. You said he hasn't "stepped up" because he did not contribute as a freshman d-lineman. I think what you said is either unfair criticism or a sloppy choice of words. In either case, I disagree with it.

Sorry, it was Hafis Williams that I was thinking about. Easily mistaken.
