Nice To Hear About Them Getting After It

UNT offseason workouts

Joe Hubbard checked in with a question today about the North Texas football team's voluntary offseason workouts. In short, he wanted to know if there were any going on.

The answer is, yes. UNT's players are actively getting ready for the season. Just today, incoming freshman quarterback Giovanni Vizza was on the practice fields outside the Mean Green Athletic Center throwing passes to a group of five or six receivers. Vizza is one of several incoming freshmen who are already on campus.

UNT's coaches are not allowed much in the way of contact with players in terms of offseason workouts, but there is little doubt the players are taking matters into their own hands.

On most days when one walks by the athletic department there are players filtering in and out of the weight room and on and off of the practice fields. Several remained in Denton this summer to get ready for their first season playing for Todd Dodge.

Word on the street is kids might be working out this summer. Can anyone confirm?

I do believe I read that somewhere. Possibly a fan message board?

Dodge 2007-

Some how, I sense that you are on campus and that you have freinds

in key places--

Please give some insider info-

Are you currently a student at NT? If so, do you know any of the

players?

Do you have access to "insider" info, like the fact you reported

Vizza and other players are playing catch on their own-

I do like your reports and notes, so I guess your postings

come from first hand knowledge. Let us know- Thanks

Hey Charlie, that comment about Vizza "throwing passes to a group of five or six receivers" was written by Brett Vito. His blog entry on that story was the subject of three separate threads here on GMG.

Slow weekend in the blogosphere. Still digging through gmg.com and various Belt boards.

Let me know if you find anything.
