2026 Spring Practice Thread

I have to believe that they'll have a conversation with Thomas after the season and tell him that he'll never play here since he can't put on the weight.

nothing wrong with an underweight situational pass rusher. not everyone is cut out to be an every down player

He’s a long way from being underweight

For Francis Brewu I want them to list his BMI all season not his weight.

Pete's the whitest lotus

 

[CanadalovesND]

He’s not a junior, anymore

 

[TNUtoNotreDame]

He’s not a junior, anymore

He is actually a sophomore

Bettis and Plexico's kid look well put together. No wasted pounds on those guys.

Sorry if said earlier, but sounds like Grubbs was pretty impressive today. Irish Illustrated's report talked about him throwing with "remarkable zip"

He does have plenty of zip. I do think he needs to work on his deep throws. He tends to throw most of his balls on a line. He just needs to be able to throw with a little more loft at times. Excited to see what the kid can do.

His best path to PT is probably become a jacked run blocker first, WR second

A 4 man pass rush with that secondary? Someone get me a cigarette.

Makes sense, this is the highest upside group you can have until either Jagusah and/or Craig returns to action.

They need someone to push Absher and I'm interested to see who steps up.

3rd and 11 for Darian Mensah with Keon Keeley, Rodney Dunham, Bryce Young, and Boubacar Traore coming after him is going to be pure electricity.

Or Sneed missiling in from somewhere.

We need to add the “horny” emoji to our reaction options

#10 throws a "catchable" ball from those clips. flat flight and tight spin. No pressure, of course, but that is how it should look.

 

[RudyVerse]

I love Grubbs but this program has turned the page, if you don’t have a deep ball you’re not going to be the starter. Now he may develop it but our floor has raised.

On the podcast, O’Malley said there were 3 fights during practice. Yes please.

 

[Dale]

Reddish worked exclusively at Nickel apparently.

So Gray/Golden - Reddish

Jayden Sanders also got a whirl on the nickel merry go round.

Read one was Shuler/Golden v Faison which tracks as “good” scrapping. Don’t want some nobodies causing chaos

 

[Dale]

Sounds like 2 INTs from Carr, 1 or 2 from Grubbs from reports

 

[Dale]

The reports on Hebert read as check down Charlie (beat gonna give him the job like they did Minchey)

Does anyone have the first day of camp starters on offense and defense?

I know it’s first day just curious

Woof

TBF, one of those was a great throw that was going to Faison, who had a step on Golden. It was on the money.

But Tae Johnson is gonna Tae Johnson.
