Yeah ya right. I think Okwara and Jones are potential wrecking balls on the line. Good to see Luke and Redfield back there. Surprised by Collinsworth. I figured Shumate.

Joe Schmidt is still on the team!? I thought for sure last year was his last year

I really want to watch Golson. Bad. I might go to the Spring Game on a whim. Anyone else going from Ohio and would want to carpool?

Corey Robinson, Chris Brown and C.J. Prosise were running with the first team at receiver, while Tarean Folston saw some action in the backfield, and Ben Koyack was at tight end.
Malik Zaire ran the show with that group, with Will Fuller (now No. 7), Torii Hunter Jr. and Amir Carlisle seeing action at receiver. Greg Bryant and Cam McDaniel split time in the backfield.

Yup. And Hannah Storm is interviewing Digger Phelps right now. Very Irish day on ESPN apparently. Funny because I never watch ESPN anymore but randomly turned it on 2 minutes ago.

It seems like he's throwing with the laces at last. Interesting.

Never understood not wanting Collinsworth to get a fifth. He's a good guy to have around. But if he's still running with the 1s by the season it'll mean the light still isn't on upstairs for Shumate, and that'll be unfortunate because Elijah's got way more upside.

I refuse to complain about the safety position(s) this year as long as Farley is not starting, lol.

I wouldn't look too much into collinsworth and Schmidt running with the ones. First spring practice the coaches want drills to run smooth. Want some upperclassmen to set an example for the younger guys. If it's that way at the end of spring practices then I'll start to wonder.

I seriously think by game 5 Morgan's going to be tough to keep off of the field. He'll have to learn BGV's system, but so will everyone else. When you watch his film, he's just on a different level than a guy like Schmidt (who will still play very meaningful minutes).

Really want to hear about Deeb, Folston/Bryant, DL, Amir, and Tori Hunter.
