Every player will be on the field today, participating at some level.
3.09 GPA this summer.
Being decimated on the perimeter the past few years has affected Dobbs' performance.
QB is a byproduct of the consistency and performance of the people around him.
Time spent talking about expectations is taking time away from working and following the process.
We expect to win championships. That's why you come here.
Still only have 11 SRs.
We don't need to be game-ready right now. We just need to build up.
Asked about Game management against UF. "Nothing is done by chance. We go back and watch it-- part of being better. We define adversity and how to overcome it. We look at every single thing that occurred in college and pro FB last year. A lot goes into making decisions. A lot of time goes into it and we feel confident in our decisions."
Shy will be very, very limited. JJ is progressing-- expected to be full-go shortly. Will see how Day 2 goes in shells. Better conditioning than we've ever had. Know more tomorrow. Try to expose players to a lot of situational FB without wearing them out.
Too early to put expectations on true FR. Really like this FR class. Older players setting the standards for newcomers.
No update on Alexis Johnson.
Want newcomers to have mentality that they're playing early. They're responsible for defining their identity and role.
Message to incoming FR: "Compete, don't compare. Compete every single day."
Stay the course. Trust the process.
Very confident w/JRM and DK. Need someone to establish themselves as #3 and #4 LB.
S is going to be extremely competitive. Warrior moved back to S.
Who's going to be corner? All have had very good summers. Osbourne got valuable reps. Ask a lot out of Foreman. Need somebody to step up and play winning FB.
John Kelly is in great shape and will be needed to carry the ball. He will get an inordinate amt of reps, as will PWilliams. Need to continue to build on the momentum and have consistency day in and day out. We'll need both of them.
TKJr will wear #24 this season in memory of Z. Dobson. TKJr will be available to media after practice today.
