It's always interesting to watch different athletes prepare themselves mentally and physically before a competition. Personally, I have always preferred Jenneke's method.

interesting how Buchanan was the first to have his stripe removed, but reading practice reports and quotes from the media would lead you to believe it would have been someone else before him like Byrd, Callaway, Kongbo, etc....
 
Leave me alone I ran out of Xanax and having severe withdrawals.

Actually I thought it was confirmed he was hurt, that appears to be untrue at this point. So nm

Yeah Hubbs said they are being cautious with both TK and EB.
 
Another quote from HardKnox for those avoiding the FF


It was a hot one even for a morning practice. Just got out of interviews with Josh Smith, Trevor Daniel, and Butch. Media room observations:

-Preston Williams is just an animal right now. We couldn't film in period 2, but I watched him on the jugs machine. Went 8 for 8 (4 right handed, 4 left) on one handed grabs. Granted, it's just a machine but he was standing pretty close which makes it harder cause the machine shoots them out with high velocity. Also, Maybin and Kirkland were practicing on the machine as well. Both were grabbing every ball thrown to them, some even one handed. Receivers looked sharp today catching.

-Shy Tuttle was going through the drills and seemed to be moving pretty well. Still might be a while though before he gets to full speed.

-The QBs looked to be throwing much better today than yesterday.

-Josh Smith said he's rooming with Byrd and that he's very "humble" and "wants to know everything." Also confirmed that he pretty much the fastest guy on the team. Smith is also Byrd's "mentor" as they are playing pretty much the same position in the slot.

-Trevor Daniel said that at one point a year or two ago, he was actually not asked to come back to the team (thought he wasn't good enough to make it). Came back as a walk on, earned a scholarship, and is now one of the best punters in the country.

-Also, Butch said "I woke up to 82 text messages about Cam Sutton being injured. I don't know where that came from." In terms of injuries, Fils-Aime does seem to have a broken wrist, but it shouldn't take him long (2-3 weeks?) and Brandon Johnson may be out for a little while with an undisclosed injury.

-Director of football operations, Chris Spognardi, has been placed on administrative leave.

Just unbelievable that we didn't win that game last year or absolutely punish them in the trenches when their offense was on the field.

That is partly scheme. It was also early for McKenzie and Tuttle, and Barnett was not himself early in the year.

I expect to hit them early and often this year.

Luke Del Rio will turn out to be a phenom, and then will be kicked off the team shortly after beating us.

We may get Alexis Johnson back after all. He had his student conduct hearing today and if he gets the green light, he'll be back for fall camp according to Hubbs.

May not be ready to contribute by Florida or later though given how much time he missed.

Where have I been about the situation with Spognardi? What's going on with that? Somebody please tell me that knows. Thanks!
