I've been pretty disappointed in the coverage of spring practice. Other than one Green Guys on line chat, nada since then. No pictures, nothing. <_<

The scrimage was nice. I can't tell much about the team yet, but I did like seeing double tight end formations, and motion. Benny Jones looked even better then last Spring. He did a great job of making the catch with defenders on him, and also creating seperation. Byrd played some RB. He must have graduated early. He already looks like a college back. Some starters didn't see much action. I only saw Dunbar on one play, and he lined up in the slot on it. Riley didn't play at all. We did have recruits at the scrimage. I met one from Cedar Hill, and one from Navaro JC. I'm sure some others guys may have caught things that I missed. It was fun.

Vito scrimmage notes

Derek Thompson looked particularly good as UNT's backup quarterback.

I agree Thompson looked very good, especially when he should be a redshirt freshman. Great size, fairly strong arm, good speed for his size, and better decision making then I was expecting.

Anyone know who that giant left tackle was? He was wearing 71.

Riley didn't throw during the scrimmage, do we know why?

According to Vito:

Riley Dodge warmed up, but was pulled from the scrimmage due to a sore arm and shoulder. Todd Dodge said he didn't throw as much in the weeks leading up to spring ball as he would have liked after breaking his arm in the season finale against Arkansas State.

      EM is the qb whisperer

      I have a TX St./SWT alum as an employee, as is her husband who also played football there. One of there concerns is that Kinne will sign anyone regardless of character of past issues. They, and many of their fellow alums, seem to think this will come back to bite them in the future.

      They ran a video at every game of Jared asking people to give to the "Light the Tower" collective.

      Chandler UVA???

      Were we really more negative about Rogers leaving? Sorry, I don't see what @Cooley sees, but maybe I have forgotten some after a year. Regarding some collective donor being pissed Poffenberger isn't starting next year, that's your gamble when you donate to a collective. I pray that they aren't being promised a starting job as it should always go to the most talented, deserving young man.

      Recognition: Thanks MG Teams

      I dont respond much, but I read your posts. Easy for people to point out problems, a loss, holes in defense or missed buckets, etc. Yet, the teams have really stepped up lately. We may have lost a few but i see the hustle and grit. And that impresses me. Ladies BBall broke down in 4th Q, but found a way to win against Memphis. Playing well in the AAC thus far. 11-4 and 3-0 in conf. looks nice. Mens BBall lost to Memphis, but played with heart. Sissoko, Newell and Walker in particular. Great effort. I also think Floyd managed the game, solid performance at the point. Football - I didnt know what to expect in the bowl game. Great effort. I am in Austin and wearing the logo on consistent basis. received a lot of input from others after that game. Stinks to come close and lose, same as with the last Boise game in Frisco. But proud of the team. So THANKS MEAN GREEN !!! Looking forward to Soccer, Softball and Diving/Swimming, Golf, etc.

      Attendance question

      Here's my take on the First Responders Bowl. * I thought they did a fantastic job honoring first responders from all lines of work throughout the game. Very impressive presentation for people that deserve to be recognized. * Location isn't terrible and Ford Stadium is fine, but I had to shower four times to remove the SMU stench. * Concessions were pretty good although it would have been nice to know if advance that they were not accepting cash. * Would have been nice to have First Responder Bowl souvenir cups instead of the stupid "Pony Up" cups. Nobody's taking those home. * Nice taking the train, walking over and then getting out quickly. This was managed well by whoever is in charge of getting people from the station safely across Central Expressway. * In spite of all of the above, $100 plus for sideline seats to this bowl/matchup was ridiculous.
