Started looking through the LJS and OWH this morning and learned the following-

Defensive line is going to be good and deep. They're beating the hell out of the offensive line- Qvale, Sirles and Reeves sat out yesterday.

Offense practiced up tempo offense with Earth Wind and Fire's "September" playing. Seahawk and Packer scouts watched practice.

And the db's/safety is getting better.

*sup Ponca*Justin Blatchford is versatile and coach says "Blatchford is playing a lot of football for us right now and he can play any multitude of spots"

Doesn't make me all warm and cozy, I know our DLine is that good but still...

 

[sandhill_husker]

Gotta give those offensive linemen a little crap. I want to see them fired up and nasty.

Hell I don't even know if there's been 1 vs. 1's.

If anything the O guys up front should be good and seasoned running against our D guys everyday

 

[sandhill_husker]

True

Developing some depth on those corners too with Dennard sitting/getting treatment.

 

[corn train]

Hard to say how long Dennard will be out with all the misinformation fed, or not fed, to the media. I get why Bo does it that way, but I don't have to like it

Some practice notes

Camp Husker

If you were there

You would have seen four Husker offensive linemen sidelined -- including three who play the tackle positions. Senior Marcel Jones, along with sophomores Brent Qvale and Jeremiah Sirles, were the tackles held out of practice. Freshman center Ryne Reeves also was a sideline spectator. Pelini said Sirles may be out another week or so, but he considered Qvale and Reeves to be "day-to-day" injuries. Jones, who battled some back issues throughout last year, hasn't yet participated in this fall camp

This part is a little troubling just a few weeks away from our first game.

It can't be any worse than a line coached by cotton and watson.........


The line play will be better....... if only because of beck

 

[sandhill_husker]

Evidently Barney was talkin about the need to find a backup center.

Building depth at center is no snap - Omaha.com

Seems to me that one should kind of fall into the no shit? category? Better find a third string too there champ.

Sandhill who is the coach in ur avatar?

How the fuck did we get to this point on the OL? Were barely stringing together starters let alone develop a second line. We have 20 some O linemen on the roster, half of which are on the ship. However most are either Freshmen and Sophomore, which leaves a huge gap where we apparently did nothing?

Milt would have never in a brazillion years let our line go like that

He and Dan Young made an outstanding team.

The JR. and SR. classes are pretty thin on OL. Feeling let down that no walk-on aside from Caputo has come through in the last few years and made a difference also. With the last few recruiting classes I think we see more emphasis placed on OL, and for good reason.

There's been at least two scholly guys that took a medical and Marcel has chronic back issues...he hasn't practiced a down this fall I think.

Still, too much hyperbole about the oline last few years, and way too many excuses IMHO. I'm not knocking the guys either, a lot of those guys have played hurt and left it all on the field. Time for Barney/Garrison to get some teaching done.
