TGHusker Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 What players do you want to see or expect to see make the greatest impact during spring practice and finally in the Spring Game? What if any strategic changes in the way we run O,D & ST do you want to see? Me: Players: Stanton: I'm wanting to see if the hype is true and that he is the real deal. I'd like to see him push TA to the top of his game and let the best man win Gerry: I'd like to see what he can accomplish at safety if the change in position is true. I think he is too good of an athlete not to be on the field full time Newby vs Taylor: I'm looking forward to seeing what Taylor can do. What are the chances that the 'looser' in this battle for back up transfers? I think Cross stays around regardless. Zaire Anderson: I'd like to see him pick up his game. I thought he might be L David like once he got into the lineup. He has only shown a bit of what he can do. I think he has great potential and hope it starts to come out in the spring game. Strategic changes: 1. Totally revamp Special teams. - our punt return game was a non-factor. Ok pathetic. Kick offs weren't a lot better outside of a few occassions. 2. Run identity - I'd like to see more consistency here - without our OC getting so cute in his play calling. With our young QBs, it is time to establish a dominating run game. Quote Link to comment
kchusker_chris Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Agree with most of this. The QB battle is certainly interesting. The offseason should do a lot for Armstrong. I'm also curious to see who steps into that spot next to VV, or more so if VV can be an every down guy the entire season. A consistent punter would be something I'd like to see come out of spring. As for scheme...a greater emphasis on the TE in the passing game. (outside of the obvious which is punt returns) Quote Link to comment
StPaulHusker Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Considering that the Spring Game isn't what it used to be in terms of the game itself, its hard to take much out of what you see on the field. I want to see Stanton and Adam Taylor on offense I want to see Joe Keels, Charles Jackson and Marcus Newby on defense. Quote Link to comment
Redux Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I wanna see two QBs play their hearts out. I wanna see two defenses playing like pros. Quote Link to comment
suh_fan93 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Stanton and Mikale Wilbon. That's about it. Quote Link to comment
Branno Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I'm most looking forward to seeing Stanton, and on a personal note experiencing the red/white game for the first time in person. Quote Link to comment
C N Red Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Stanton and Mikale Wilbon. That's about it. Ummm..........Mikale Wilbon will not be playing in the game. So you are probably only going to be about half as excited as you thought. Quote Link to comment

teachercd Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I hope it is on TV, I will be down in Lincoln for the game but I really don't plan on going in so I really hope BTN picks it up. With that being said...I might have Skybox passes for the game...anyone interested in purchasing them? Around 100 dollars each? Super expensive I know but its the best I can do. I don't get them for free. Quote Link to comment
StPaulHusker Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I also want to see green grass because it will be July in the Twin Cities before that happens Quote Link to comment
True2tRA Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I want Armstrong to light it up, or atleast I expect him to. Never the less, I want the best QB to be our starter whichever guy it is. I want ZA to light it up and kick some ass again. That guy should be a pro someday. I want to see somebody step up at CB and ease the worries about our secondary. Every year someone steps up, Im sure this year will be no exception. Quote Link to comment
Number12 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I'm hoping to see Armstrong look very crisp and in charge. Quote Link to comment
Abdullah the Butcher Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Armstrong to complete 70% in the game with few bad passes. Some real punt returns but they will probably do the fat guy returns again as a gimmick. Quote Link to comment
