How the guys look?

I went for about the first half before dinner break time was over for me. Most of the team looked good but some of the WR were getting chewed out due to effort in the agility drill part at the start of practice. I stayed until they had the Hootin N Hollerin drill again which is about mid practice (period 8-10) & it seemed like the D won more this time around than the O. There was a couple of dozen of fans there probably family/gf types. The LBs were laying some hits on each other during their group session.

I watched the TE's quite a bit, and #86 looked pretty good.

Hopefully there will be a number 84 that also looks good this summer...

So McGee is going to use your son as a TE for now & not on the defensive side or is that still to be decided?

Not since the 60/70's has a DE worn #84.

It's not entirely far fetched.

Not sure since Coach has never seen him at TE. I would guess he will get a look at both and then Coach will use him where he thinks he can help the team most.
I just want him to play..........and WIN!

I love all of the former Blazers that the Stache is getting to return to campus to watch and be around the program.

+1 to both of the last 2 posts on winning & getting more people involved around the program

I am excited. I think we tailgate the spring game! I am in agreement with those who earlier suggested it.

Does rain affect West Field as much as it does the practice field as far as having to move a scrimmage or the spring game? I assume if it's moved it'll be at LF like they did last Sat

A lot of rain leading up to last years game. The field wasn't too bad.
