2025 Spring Practice Thread

Pyne was like 5'11 and couldn't throw a consistent deep ball like either Burrow or Angeli.

That’s a stretch of a comment from our buddy Greg. I do see some similarities in the sense that both have pinpoint accuracy, cool when blitzed, probably both look dumb with frosted tips, etc. but overall he’s just trying to create buzz around the QB “race”

I'll pop that cherry, because now I know the difference between a Return of the Pyne shudder and a Burrow in the back field tingle down my spine.

He'd be the most experienced QB in the room!!!

Probably the silver lining to the Gilbert injury is that it opened up an opportunity for Williams to make a big step. He'll get a ton of reps at boundary, since he's out and Fields doesn't arrive until the summer.

Ugh, I can't wait for the jersey scrimmage and hopefully all the reports/videos we'll get from that.

Received an email from Peacock.
Since I used to live expat, they helpfully reminded me that overseas viewers can watch the BG Game for free.
Fire up the VPN, connect to Europe based server, sign in, watch for free.

Angeli as Burrow, well, let's not get a head of ourselves here...that said, I've mentioned this before, but I've always been extremely impressed with Angeli's confidence, control, and poise. Many QBs (extremely talented ones at that) can't read defenses and crumble under pressure on the big stage. Angeli came in the Penn State game and looked like a seasoned veteran. He looked so confident that I thought they'd have a big decision to make at halftime (i.e., stick with Angeli or put Leonard back in). Confidence and grit...that's something you can't coach. You either have it or you don't.

I know everyone on IE is tired of me saying it, but If you don't have it between the ears, it doesn't matter how physically talented you are. Angeli's biggest fault is he sometimes holds onto the the ball too long. If they speed up the clock in his head, he can be very good. Not Burrows good, but very good.

Moore was beaten so badly that he wasn't even on the screen.

Cam-A-tron!

Just heard young Tyler Wojciak mention on his podcast that Jordan Bothelo is on track for full recovery / full go in fall. Is this being discussed elsewhere and a known thing?
That would be huge for the team and Jordan.

Yes. II discussed him and Traore being full go this summer with no limitations per the head trainer.

The punter Rendon is back. In his interview he said he is going to work on kick better this year.

Rendell and I’d expect he’s going to do a great job this upcoming season!

Anyone know what the jersey scrimmage looks like? Format, teams, etc? Not a beautiful day for it. Anyone know what time it starts?

Considering reporters weren't even sure if it was going to be today, I doubt there's too much insight going into it.

Maybe merckxe knows..

Well looks like Jaguash is back at tackle can’t ever have nice things is it going to be one of those years again? It’s early maybe he can bounce back and get 5 games in. Or maybe Black ends up taking over LT

LOL my man, we don't even know what the injury is yet. Feel like I'm taking crazy pills that we all just discarding the season Anthonie Knapp had last year

 

[Dale]

If Lambert is out long term, I think for once spring lineups will tell a lot. If Jagusah trots out there at OT next week after they’ve been saying he’s best at OG for 2 weeks, will be quite obvious. If not, Knapp’s spot.
