    Practice

    I stopped up today and watched for 30-40 minutes. It was awesome. I'm going to try and go back as much as possible.

    The offense looks spectacular. I need to print a roster so I can get names/numbers for the new WRs.

    Grace looked accurate and seemed like he had pretty good timing for being a few weeks from gameday.

    Only a few dropped balls and they seemed sun related.

    There's not much contact yet, but Corey Lewis made a JAW DROPPING move.

    A little pushing and shoving. Glad to see they are fired up.

        O-Line looked HUGE. They only did a little 11 on 11 when I was there. They looked pretty solid minus a few false starts. but it's early.

            Re: Practice

            Today's updates:

            #1 Corey Lewis RB - still looks unbelievable. It would appear he did not let his success from last year be good enough, and worked through the off season.

            #3 Ben Alford WR - appears to be taking snaps at QB? It is possible numbers are off, but he was NOT wearing a yellow QB jersey. Whoever it was seemed pretty accurate. Not sure why he would be taking snaps as all the other QBs looked good. Maybe no minutes available at WR so let him fight for the backup job?

            #4 Johnny Gray WR - Can anything be said about Johnny that hasn't been said a million times. He looks quick, agile, and untouchable as usual.

            #5 DJ Hord WR - Not in camp yet, I assume?

            #5 DP Eyman WR - No sign of him?

            #6 Victor Williams WR - Victor looks more explosive than ever. Good showing the last 2 days.

            #7 Carlos Anderson RB - I think we will all know this name soon. The freshman from Missouri looks ready to go at the college level. Great vision and moves.

            #8 Nick Nelson S - Watched from the back of the offense, but Nelson looked like he was on top of things. We have such WRs that sometimes it's hard to tell how good the DBs are in comparison.

            #9 Montari Leonard WR - Looks like he's put on some muscle. Still the same quick and explosive WR we saw flashes of this year. Put on 20 lbs and he's an exacpt copy of Johnny Gray.

              Re: Practice

              #13 Pat Grace QB - Looked solid on both Wed and Thurs. Seems to have some footspeed that Sanders was lacking.

              #14 Luke Warren WR - Not sure where he fits in, but was making solid catches and seemed to be in sync with the offense.

              #17 Zach Davis QB - I saw quite a few QB's today. Zach was my favorite. We was patient with the ball and didn't force anything. We was very mobile, and when nothing opened up, he took off. Had it not been practice, it may have been a 90 yd TD run.

              #19 Caleb Walter QB - Lined at WR most of the day. Not sure if he took any snaps. He was wearing the #19 yellow jersey and looked pretty quick.

                Re: Practice

                #20 Joe Morris RB - Morris appears to be something we have plenty of. Great RBs. Not sure where he fits in.

                #30 Taylor Brookins RB - See above

                #31 Derrick Law RB - See above

                #77 Austin Howard OT - minor injury? Thought I saw him play yesterday. Didn't do anything today.

                #80 Julian Morris WR - The Soph from MN looks great. Should see the field this year. Quickness, speed, AND height (6'2")

                #87 Schuylar Oordt TE - No sign of him.

                    Oordt was in Nicaragua for the summer... maybe he's paying a sentence for missing weights, etc. all summer?

                      #18 is listed as Quentin Scott DB, but 18 was taking snaps all day as a QB. Not sure who it was. Took a lot of snaps, looked like a solid backup.

                      #19 Caleb Walter QB - Lined at WR most of the day. Not sure if he took any snaps. He was wearing the #19 yellow jersey and looked pretty quick.
                      Chances we have 2 QB's on the field at the same time? Trick formation/play?

                        like when Victor Williams threw for a 57 yard touchdown against Illinois State in '06?

                          Zach Davis is alot like Tim Tebow.I really don't think they can keep him off the field.

                            How is a kid that weighs 190 pounds like Tim Teabow.....I agree he will be a great player....but Teabow status is a stretch right now.

                              I just met they play the game the same way.
                              They can run or pass whatever the D gives them they'll take advantage of it and both find away to win.
                              Heck no Zach not as good I didn't mean that.I said that wrong sorry.
                              UNI is going to love this Kid.
