corchjay 5,311 Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Everyone liking the practice schedule format? The 3 days then off a couple then a "scrimmage" day? I like it for the following reasons. 1. The players better be in shape and not have to be worked into shape at the start of fall camp 2. They can install on day 1, corrections on day 2, Follow up on the corrections and new install on day 3 come back the next monday and repeat day 3 install 3. Love scrimmages on saturdays @Altima you gonna be able to make any of the scrimmages and give us a little insight without giving away to many secrets?

Thx for the response. I know the feeling about the kids. I basically have 3 teenage boys at home. Always something going on. Hastings looked good in the spring game as well. I think in one of the broadcast last year if I'm remembering correctly he has the fastest 10yard split on the team. That's good for getting off the line especially if he's lined up off the line in the slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUpreacherman22 3,876 Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 There is a market for WRs like WH. If you can get open and catch the ball, there will be a spot for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's because they are undersized slot guys that have been used to amazing success. So, there, lol.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tigerfangs 269 Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 The small receiver from clemp was a handful, and I think Hastings will be also. With his story of how he became a WR @ AU, everyone should pull for him(non AU too). He was given the opportunity through hard work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the set up for the veterans, but I wonder how it is for the freshman. I wonder what yours and @bigbird thoughts are on how does this set up help or hurt the freshman class or is it a non-factor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, the added film work and meetings on the off days will benefit everyone, not just the freshman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corchjay 5,311 Posted August 5, 2017 Author Share Posted August 5, 2017 I agree with Bird. I like the setup up. More time for the mental side which is always better for the younger guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
