D$ with insight on practices and scrimmage, including big plays from Jacurri and Colby Young

[Cribby]

Seems like we rarely hear anything about the RB play... I know there are some injuries and they will likely be looking to bring in another player, but how concerned should we be and if we should be concerned is it more a function of the RBs or OL?

Chaney is having a very good spring

Chaney has had a very good spring

Anyone of note behind him? Pulling for this kid but I think we are all a bit gun shy of we have to depend on him alone.

 

[DMoney]

@DMoney how is graves doing? I know he still is young like 18 or 19 but haven’t heard much about him

Very talented (probably the most talented) but young. Needs consistency and maturity.

How about Jaden Harris and Malik Curtis?

How about Jaden Harris and Malik Curtis?

Curtis is doing OK, he has a chance at the rotation. Harris is playing nickel and safety but his long-term future might be at safety.

 

[JHallCanes]

Makes sense that Young and X are the top two receivers at the moment

However I think Nathaniel Joseph is the one that I hear mentioned every single practice since he stepped foot on campus

 

[Manfred_Cane]

Does anybody have a running list of players who are injured/returning from injury? Appreciate it!

Merch needs MOAR meat me in the Blu lot options
Maybe a bear attack option

Yeah I don’t recall any practice updates not including a “woah” moment from him.

That PractiSe hoodie would hit. @DMoney

It’s a little reminiscent of Kam when he got here

I remember the hype with James Williams and we had some other guys on defense and Kam was slightly under the radar but like every practice he was coming up with an INT or he would get mentioned

Lord knows we’ve missed out on a ton of guys in Joseph’s mold only to watch them ball out at other schools so hopefully we got this one right this time

He'll play early. Has a second and third gear few players in the country have.

 

[SpikeUM]

It's not the same group of players. But carry on moping...

@DMoney Ideas for the merch, "Mope" and/or "Porster".

 

[3FW]

I expect Brown to have set reps in the offense and also relieve TVD a little earlier in games we are ahead. Staff knows they need to have 2 QBs ready to play at a high level in big games.

Glad to hear on Wesley Bissainthe. All the talk was Mauigoia and some B Wash, so hearing Wesley's name again was nice.

Looking forward to the spring game. Just show me an offense that clicks and can sustain drives and points.

Last year broke me. I gotta see this in September.

Hoping he has a big impact during the actual season

 

[Cryptical Envelopment]

Really looking forward to the development of Jacurri brown. Hopefully he gets to sit the full year play mop up duty and then ready to go. Cause he’s going to be dangerous.

As it stands we can play Brown and Emory in four games each and still preserve both their redshirts. They both really need a 'shirt, for the sake of their careers and the program.

Frankly I would sacrifice backup reps for them for the first 4-5 games of the season in order to have them available if we need them later, and only use Brown if TVD went out in a tight, still winnable game.

If we want to pull TVD in an early season blowout I'd rather see a scout team kid go out there to hand off and kneel, and save Brown and Emory until the second half of the season just in case. It would be a disaster to really need Brown later in the year and not have him or have to burn his 'shirt late.

Redshirt > reps this year.
