The Fall Camp Thread

[smokeyhuntsgators]

Excellent reports after the first day of Fall camp. Gonna be fun to watch this team develop into something special.

 

[RikidyBones]

This is gonna be the funniest team to watch that we've had in a long time.

Why funny?

If Worley lives up to this summer hype....

Why funny?

He may have meant "funnest". :unsure:

....then we are gonna be some HAPPY fans

The Cordarelle Patterson parallels here are striking.

Definitely.

If VP is anything approaching that the receivers are going to be nuts-o. Hell, if hes better than North its going to be quite a show.

Write it down: Von Pearson is the best receiver on the team. And he knows it. Very confident

thats an interesting statement

Wow! That's a huge statement! If we can get average line play, and we will score a lot of points.

Then it will be the first player, besides CP, to live up to his VQ hype ha

As long as he can get the ball to a playmaker, I'll be happy. It doesn't have to be pretty in the process, just get them the darn ball.

Very true...I think he gonna shock some folk this year though.

Very good chance.

Didn't realize that Carson was still on the team.

My guess is he won't be next year

Lol

Moar.

@SwainEvent: Pads go on Tues or Wed. Can't wait!

@SwainEvent: Energy level was the same at the end of practice as it was at the beginning of practice. That's Dave Lawson! #conditioning

@Volquest_Paul: Brian Randolph said the young DBs all didn't look lost and are eager to learn. Tells me he weighs 210.

 

[KBVol]

Anybody else think Josh Dobbs is going to win the starting QB job? The fact that Justin Worley wasn't sent down to speak at SEC media week indicates to me that there really is a legitimate competition for starting QB.

Worley's arm is not the same arm from last year. Confidence level is through the roof also.

Justin Worley is a different Justin Worley and can't wait until everyone else to see what I've seen since spring.

Why funny?

Autocorrect sucks, I meant funnest.

Danny O'Brien said probably 6-7 saturdays this summer the entire defense gathered to cookout and bond. O'Brien even cooked venison one week from his hunting excursion.

Marlin Lane said he took the offensive line out to eat earlier this year and wanted to let them know they're loved same as last year's group.

CBJ:

Liked energy but saw some lulls. Older players did good job coaching younger players. Nothing simulates football condition. What's tomorrow's mental approach? Football is a lifestyle and it comes into play right now.

Thought did some good things. Lot to correct. Also still just in helmets. Only so much you can do.

I did i saw a much faster football team in all areas. Just overall team speed i did see much improvement.

-John Brice

 

[ionaVOL]

Boom.

@Volquest_Paul: Butch says freshman Aaron Medley hit a 'game-winning FG' that Butch threw at him as a surprise. Also says the team is faster overall.

Wow. Way to step up, Marlin Lane.

Dammit lol

Reeves-Maybin up 20 pounds. Now 230. Says he gets tired of eating sometimes but worth it.


Marlin Lane said he thought the offense met the coaches' expectations for the offensive tempo today.


Randolph said he's up from 190 to 210, and he did it for durability.

A.J. Johnson said the team came out with plenty of energy today and was ready to play, but there's always room to get better.


Kerbyson: This team has great chemistry. That's gonna help us get better.

Kerbyson: Blair doesn't look like the same guy. Is so much better conditioned now. We're all really proud of him.

Jackson said he's not taking anything differently from the way he did his redshirt year. Said he's excited about this team and this group up front.

Kerbyson: We got a bit sloppy at the end of practice with our sets and our techniques, but we'll improve. We can do it.

Butch: This is a faster team, no question. But we need to get off blocks, make plays, use that speed.

Butch: We challenged every player in our program to learn as quickly as possible, give us fast answers. We need to be quick-minded like that. We have to text them.

Between drops and fumbles, about 60 balls hit the ground today. Good teams have more like 18 or so. Our accuracy needs to improve. But this was the first day.

Butch: Dillon Bates always goes and finds AJ Johnson out there on the field. It's kind of funny.

Butch: Pig had good moments today. But we need more consistency from him.

Jones: Cody Blanc was injured today in practice. Maybe an ankle or Achilles' tendon. We'll know more after he sees doctor.

Butch: Blair looks like a different guy mentally and physically. Proud of him. He's worked hard.

Maybin and Bates 230 plus. That's good news.
