Hooker is the guy. For sure the starter in the Fall. - AP

He was not impressed with Bailey or Maurer today.

Don't tell me Bailey can't move!

this is hbs team

 

[SweetasSoda]

Madden Awareness level of 50 gets tackled at the 7. All it takes is decisiveness.

Looked like Peyton against AL to me. Did not look like Dobbs.

 

[triadvolfan]

That wr should have caught that. Not on bailey

It actually looked like PI to me. The WR got hit before the ball got there.

 

[Big Gucci Sosa]

sounds like our QB room just sucks.

 

[Catbone]

Well if we don't have a QB better than jg, we are very fu****.

 

[SweetasSoda]

this is hbs team

hbs? HB's? Or do I need to go to urban dictionary lol?

 

[Volnukem]

AP was barely paying attention.
I thought Hooker looked the best, but Bailey’s best receiver for 80% of his reps was Jancek. Also, 3rd DL >>>>> 3rd OL.

Agreed. But if they are getting HB all of the JV work, that speaks for itself in its own right.

Lol AP probably didn’t look up from his iPad with The Masters coverage.

That’s crazy..... it’s a new system the guys are working with and they have all of summer to get better for the season..... it would be sweet if hooker is a good QB in this system bc his legs would be a huge advantage.

Went to practice, here are my thoughts:

Hooker and Maurer are ahead of Bailey. Maurer made more big plays than Hooker, but the offense seemed to run more smoothly with Hooker. Could be a 1s vs 2s thing. Maurer threw a couple picks, under threw the receiver both times. Think the talk about bringing in another QB is valid.

Defense looked better than I was expecting. Think the DL will play well this year. Thought the secondary and LBs made some nice plays. They ran nickel exclusively from what i could tell. Solon Page, Morven Joseph, and Kwauze Garland got a lot of reps with the 1s. Joseph really flashed.

I think OL and RB will be the strength of the offense this year.

Punt returners fielding kicks were Calloway, Hyatt, and Holiday. Calloway looked the most comfortable.

Thought physicality on both sides of the ball was good, players seem engaged.

Kickers I saw getting reps were McGrath and Wilson. Didn't see Carver, but could have missed him. McGrath and Wilson both had a miss or two during live reps.

Brooks is our best punter, hopefully he stays healthy.

Kind of silly to say "for sure" this early. He should be ahead of the other two at this point because of experience.

 

[Volnukem]

Defense was mostly in a 3-3-5 with the Buck rolled down to rush mostly. Eason and Young took most of those reps. Add Baron back to the mix and I think that is a solid group. Page, Garland, and Mojo ran Mike and Will. After them, it was mostly Humphrey, Shuler, Valentine, and someone else (Albright?). We need Willis, French, Banks, and Harrison back ASAP. DB’s looked pretty good I thought to be playing a lot more zone than under Pruitt. Garner will have the DL playing better than we have seen in a long time. I think they will be the strength of the D. I didn’t realize we were so injured at WR. The 3rd string was almost all walk-ons.

 

[mikemist]

Any news on RB Evans?

He's still injured didn't see him get any reps

 

[SweetasSoda]

He's still injured didn't see him get any reps

Thanks

 

[beneVOLence]

Don't tell me Bailey can't move!

I have a feeling the guys will actually pick up the QB this year after they get sacked.

 

[volbeast33]

Yep..... I agree

 

[Volnukem]

Was it just me or did it seem like Pierce got a lot of touches at RB.

 

[mikemist]

Yeah him and Orr seemed like they got quite a few touches, thought they ran well

 

[Jackcrevol]

Harrison Bailey. Truly hope they find a qb who can run this offense, guess the Jim's are used to getting kicked at this point.

Eason has really bulked up, big dude

 

[VolGee4]

That’s my biggest concern is the offense will be good and the defense will be terrible. I hope I’m proven wrong.

Why would you be upset at this? Last year, our offense and defense were terrible. This year, our defense won’t have to be perfect as long as offense is scoring. It’s exciting football. No more 27-14 losses.
