Tuesday Night's Practice..

FirefightnRick · August 12, 2009

Had a lot of fun attending practice tonight.

Notes:

Draylen Ross could not be blocked by one person. To me he looked as the quickest and most agile DT in the group.

I'm very impressed with Riley's accuracy.

Nwigwe and Robertson are badasses.

Micah Mosely looks like a linebacker now. I expect to see him running over some people this year.

Jamel Jackson can stretch the field.

Santiago has that mean streak we have so badly needed on the O line. He practices very hard and appears to be taking this camp very serious.

Darien Williams is becoming a real head hunter for the secondary.

Mike Outlaw held onto the ball after taking some big hits after catches over the middle.

Chris Brainard may have the best hands of all the WR's.

I honestly believe Brandon Akpunku would chop down a forest of trees with a spoon if it meant it would bring us a winning season.

If Coach Deloach were a cartoon character he would be Vavoom!!!! from "Felix the Cat". Ya gotta love this man's passion for coaching football. If there's anyone who can move mountains it's Gary Deloach. His defense will be THE difference in terms of success for this team.

Wednesday night's practice should be a lot of fun when this team goes in full pads.

Yes, but we're not allowed to watch this one.

Any observations on Sam Roberson? Haven't read much about him since practice started. Hoping that he would be one to step up this year.

Yes, but we're not allowed to watch this one.

According to a Steven Bartolotta Green Gang Article on 8/3, all practices until 8/15 are open to the public. Today's practice at 3:30 PM is at the AC.

Thanks Rick. With my limited knowledge of this year's WRs, who do you think is the most athletic of the bunch?

I'm with Lantern: I loved Roberson when he signed, and really hope he can put everything together like I believe he can.

Expect numerous unsportsmanlike conduct penalties from Apunku this year. (unless he changes). That kid is way too full of himself.

Based on his behavior during practice?

After seeing Monday nights's practice, I thought #15 Jamaal Jackson looked the most athletic.

Thanks for the update Rick. Sounds like some progress is being made.

Darien Williams is becoming a real head hunter for the secondary.

This also really stood out to me. We desperately need a Buckles or Jones type roaming the field again.

You're probably right, but, as long as he keeps a 2:1 ratio of sacks to penalties, I'll be ok with him.

T.J. Covington bets North Texas fans say that to all the boys.

This was posted on the Blog Tuesday night....

"7:08 Steven B: nothing but stretching yet, officially practice doesn't start until 7:10....It's open by the way, like they all are, to the public."
