Confused ... has spring ball started?

[NorthTexan95]

I saw some video of the first practice but nothing since even though practice is open.  Vito said he would live blog the practices but even he seems to be avoiding practice.

Am I missing something?  Honestly, with a new coach bringing an exciting offense it should be easy for the AD office to get fans excited to come out for practice and create a lot of excitment heading into the summer.

Follow https://twitter.com/MeanGreenFB and you will see the videos form each practice with plenty of drills they are running through

Agreed. Other than the video in the Alec Morris thread I haven't seen anything. Harry, I saw this every spring but damn I miss your old spring ball notes in the premium section!!!

They Periscope things, too.

[DeepGreen]

Don't like periscope.  Doesn't the AD have a website that they can show video footage of portions of Spring practice?

Littrell referenced today's practice was the third on twitter.

That requires work.

So... go post, slant, curl, fly, hook, etc.. I'm OK with a little sandlot type strategy that requires less thinking from the WR's, just as long as the QB and play callers can pick things up and handle it. I do believe that we'll be pleasantly surprised with the talent of some of our young receivers.

Thanks @Brett Vito

– Don’t overlook the possibility of Texas Tech transfer Trey Keenan playing a key role for this team. The knock on Keenan at Tech was that he couldn’t put on the weight to become a legitimate Big 12-caliber offensive lineman. That won’t be a problem at UNT and in Conference USA. He’s listed at 272.

Yes, Vito doesn't miss too many belittling opportunities. Surprised that he didn't mention Patrick's "climbing the ladder" move to TT for the 20th time while he had the chance.

It won't be a problem for Cam Feldt either.
It won't be a problem for Tyler Stradford either.
It won't be a problem for Anthony Wallace either.
It won't be a problem for Darius Terrell either.
....

Hoping for big things from Mr. Keenan, but as we've seen from just about every transfer in the past 10 yrs *not named Marcus Trice* transferring from Tech/(insert P5 school here), is not an automatic qualifier for stellar play at North Texas/(insert G5 school here).

272 is light for any position on the OL at any level.

Even Trice struggled his first year at UNT/C-USA.

Makes for the lightest o-lineman on the team, and we typically average one of the bigger lines in the country, well above 300-310.

Guys like Jordan Murray and Shawn McKinney kinda help pad our stats.

[Eagle-96]

Wow, can't get a signal to be able to liveblog practices. If we only had a LAN provider we could contact to help us get service out there at the practice field. Oh well.

I approve of this post. There is a reason they transferred. 

Get out of my head!

Having Bryce English next season would help UNT a ton. There is not a ton of size at defensive tackle outside of T.J. Tauaalo, Roderick Young and Julius Combes, who is unproven.

 

Dont let this worry you none...cause we're gonna tee It's up wide and let it fly open.

Home practices sell themselves?
