I keep hearing about our lack of depth at LB, especially on the inside. I share that concern, but what's up with Greg King? Nobody has mentioned his name recently. Was he abducted by aliens or something? :alien:

SIAP but here is a quote from Dooley on no practice today as the team heads back to campus...

"When Smokey's been hunting the way you want him to hunt, you throw that dog a bone."

Loving this fall camp so far!!!

With all the emphasis Dooley traditionally places on the importance of practice, I am frankly shocked that he cancelled. No way he does this unless the team is ahead of schedule. I take this as fantastic news.

Early returns make it sound like the trip to Milligan was a great idea and well worth it. Excited to see the results from the next scrimmage. I really think they are gonna be running on all cylinders by the 31st.

I don't think Milligan should be an every year deal. Maybe every other year. Keeps it somewhat special.

Good analysis jmoore. I also think Dooley has been trying to recruit for 3-4 for a couple years to make the transition easier.

I would like to hear more on G King as well. I know this is really the first year he's been at 100%.

Palardy's 4-for-4 performance is a little more impressive when you consider that Tennessee was alternating its snappers. Sam Giampapa is a 6-foot-0, 239-pound Jackson native who transferred in from Michigan State following his freshman season. J. R. Carr is a 5-foot-10, 224-pound senior from Lomita, Calif. Both are snapping so well lately that they're essentially tied for the first-team job.

"I think the snapper situation calming down no question helped Mike Palardy)," Coiner said. "It's got to. When you have confidence in your snapper and your holder that goes a long way. We talk a lot to Mike and George (Bullock) about 'Who do you feel most comfortable with as your holder? Which snapper? And obviously we chart everything."

The battle between Giampapa and Carr is so close that it may continue right up to Game 1.

"It's a tight competition," Coiner said. "In fact, we're rolling the depth chart every day. One goes with the ones one day and the other goes with the ones the next day. They're getting plenty of work. They're both good snappers. One (Giampapa at Michigan State) has some game experience and one (Carr) has been here. They both bring unique advantages to the table. We feel like we've got three really good snappers. Nick Sharick (6-foot-4, 228-pound freshman from Columbus, Ohio) is a really good young snapper, too."

It's good to see him there but if Tiny was to get hurt then Thomas is likely to slide outside & Jackson would move into LG.

I think Posey is the type of player that will come on as a Junior/Senior. Hubbs said he needs to learn to play faster.

Don't forget Stone may be our second or third best Guard so if something happens at Guard he may be the best option especially if there have been snapping issues.

Two weeks and a wake up!

I recently looked through our commitment list and the list of others we are still recruiting, there seem to be a lot of quality players uncommitted and we could be in the final five for several.

I'm looking for a break out year on the field.

After our first back to back losing seasons in history, it can't do anything but get better.

Some big upsets could boost recruiting! :)

I haven't read the article yet but people on VQ are saying that the NCAA is suppose to be interviewing De'Vinner soon.
