    Anyone in CF with info?....I want to hear how the Juco QB looks....

    I haven't seen the new transfer throw, but I too have heard from inside people that he does have a better arm. Also, John Hermann (who most will remember has been a defensive end the past few years) just found out that he's been moved to linebacker. I talked to him yesterday and he said he's very excited about the switch in positions. However, he injured his foot back during spring ball and they just found out a couple of weeks ago that it's actually fractured. He's had trouble running on it, but he should hopefully be ready to go come kick off. In the Dome today, they had highlights up on the jumbo screen from last season... I think they're gonna replay all of that for the guys tomorrow. They report tomorrow, but actual practice doesn't start until Friday. I also saw quite a few of the guys tonight... everyone seems fired up and ready to go!!! I can't wait!

      Moved to LB

      Wow he was listed as starter at DE coming out of spring drills. Didn't think he was fast or mobile enough to play LB but I am sure the coaches know what they are doing. I am sure he will be moved outside makes sense if was a DE. I know coach was not too pleased with the outside guys coming out of spring practice. We'll see what a good off season has done for them. Interested to see how the depth chart ends up.

        Do you think it might have something to do with the BIG DE transfer from Minnesota...Everette Pedescleux?

          There were a few players milling around down on the dome floor on Monday when I was there snapping pics of the McLeod Center.

            My guess is that it has alot more to do with Stensrud, Matthes, Johnson, Lacy, and Huygens probably being very capable of holding down the 3 line positions, and Hermann is probably the best fit to move to OLB. My guess is that they think they can turn Hermann into last year's Beau Gibbs. We will see how soon Pedescleaux figures into the mix. Hopefully the competition for D-Line is good enough to push all of them to max out their ability this year (including Pedescleaux and others not mentioned above).
            The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.

                They don't have actual practice today... that starts tomorrow. I'm not sure on times tomorrow though.

                  I found out that they are at 9 and 4 either in the dome or west of the dome. That is reliable info, btw.
