Will the media be there, or was that a one time deal?

They were allowed to just the one full practice, but they'll be there for parts of each practice. Typically Bo lets them watch warmups and maybe some early drills, but not much else. We'll see.

[Foppa]

I heard Payton Manning is coming to talk to Bo about playing...if that happens, expect Taylor Martinez to be traded to Jacksonville.

I'm looking forward to seeing if Ameer maintains his position as Rex's backup or if Aaron starts getting more of the carries. Maybe Jamal Turner will step up again this Spring.

You're not going to see a lot of that stuff. They let the press see the same groups that ended the year in the same order for the most part unless someone gets hurt or is just that fantastic. Not many people knew that Tmart was almost exclusive with the #1's when they were claiming that Lee and Green were hashing it out for the starting job.

 

That being said. . . sounds like there is a chance the media will get so see an additional full practice part way through depending on what the dips$&ts at the OWH do. They've been asked to keep certain things about practice out of the press and if they can do that the media will get more access and in return we'll get more info from the media about whats going on rather than speculation. They've asked for things to be similar to how it was when TO was there. Right now not everyone is agreeing to do that so it might not happen. You know. .. cause they have a right to freedom of speech and all that crap.

I would expect to see Green make a big jump this year, while Ameer continues to light up the field on special teams.

I'm sure Dirk will prematurely shoot his...umm...mouth. It's amazing how voracious the media is anymore. Anything for a buck, no matter what. And football is nothing compared to how the media has no regard for U.S. interests if it gets them what they want. Remember the media waiting on the beach for the troops to land in Somalia? These guys just don't get it that if you bite the hand that feeds you, you won't be fed again.

[The Dude]

Tim Beck talks about offensive line depth, Taylor Martinez's feet, balance, and other things of that nature.

[The Dude]

He basically confirmed my fear that we have virtually no offensive tackle depth.

[Hoosker]
