I think we are more like the Marx Brothers.  Only thing is I can't figure out which of us is Grocho and which is Zeppo. 

Hey, grunt, I think you are more like Gummo -- since you like to gummo up the works with your comments! 

One more thought on this subject:

Look at the young WR's over at BG...Clint Stephens and Roger Lewis. These guys are BCS talents with offers from schools like Miami...the one in FLORIDA.

I said it all of last season, and I'll say it again now: we are being lapped in terms of athletic ability by other teams in our conference. We can't trot out second rate athletes (albeit with great attendance to team meetings and excellent blocking skills) and expect to compete with BG for the next several years. Look for more 50-0 losses in the future...spoiling your Tuesday night plans! I ordered a pizza and bought fancy craft beer for this?!

If a RS Freshman with NO GAME EXPERIENCE is going to start for us, then we should be hearing that he is DOMINATING practice and scrimmages. Or, at least, we should get SOME MENTION that this guy is really good. Is that too much to ask? Am I insane?

At its essence, I don't trust the coaches anymore and I don't think the program is headed in the right direction. So there ya go.

There is only one way to know. We'll just have to wait and see how they play.

Might be a taller, faster Matt Waters. Same size exactly as Riley Dunlop. Coach Dixon seems to enjoy coaching and relies on these types of young men/athletes. Can't blame him.

OK, here  you go. Arkley, in his blog was asked by Schaus which of the wide receivers he thought have stood out in practice. Summarizing Arkley's answers:
1. Herman Brunis - This true freshman always hustled, and made at least one eye-catching play per practice
2. Landon Smith - Is a handful over the middle
3. Aaron Bradley - playing inside or out, he looked good
4. Brandon Cope - While he opened eyes in Spring practice, he has been hampered by injury, but has looked good in limited action, and has done an excellent job blocking on the perimeter
5. Jordan Reid - has looked good from the slot, on post routes

I'm sure Cochran will also be in the mix. Honestly, if none of these six could play, and Ohio went with Sebastian Smith, Cedric Brown, Justin Wyatt, Ian Dixon, Kawmae Sawyer, and Randy Stites, I think they would be fine. The quality and depth at WR this year is remarkable, though the players are young. Of the top 9 or so receivers, 6 are underclassmen, so WR will be solid for quite awhile.

Paul--I share some of your viewpoints (espec some which don't resonate though-I-don't-know-why with others).  But I think that you're distinctly wrong about our wideouts.  They'll be just fine this year.

Re: Mr. Brunis and the eye-catching plays. Seems I remember some receivers who had a way of making the routine look remarkable. The thing about those remarkable appearing catches is they rarely have any yards after the catch. Now perhaps the trick is to make the remarkable look routine with the catch in stride so as to produce more yards. If I am being harsh I invite some old WRs to call me out on this.

To me, it's all about the play of the O-line and the linebackers.

No mention of Iowa transfer Cameron Wilson that I have seen anywhere. Has he been practicing?
