And that is the absolutely correct way to handle it. But still any stray nuggets and nuances will be welcome.

Bailiff spoke both of his affection for the university and the student-athletes, and expressed confidence in our goals of bouncing back from last year to host the Conference Championship and play in a bowl again this season.

Taking a question about the Stanford opener, he spoke of a lot of the logistics of getting a team there, and quietly mentioned that we are going there to win the game.

On defense (as I believe most of us know), we are switching to the 3-4 from the 4-2-5. Stewart mentioned using a lot of cover two and cover three. He expects us to get a lot more sacks as a result of the linemen coming from upright stance vs a down stance as in the past.

Offensively with Lynch taking the reins, expect more explosive plays, which we intend to accomplish with deception, by running multiple plays from the same pre-snap formation.

Lynch said that the college game is won primarily through explosive plays and creating turnovers (and containing the opponents). That sounds like those will be our key areas of focus.

It's certainly aligns with where Rice has found our success over the past decade.

Great to hear from the new coordinators and hear everyone's enthusiasm for the new schemes/styles. And to meet a lot of folks around the program past and present, and hear again just how much Rice Football means to them personally.
