RR met with the media tonight on practice today:
- Weather was cool today for practice - maybe not as hot as he expected.
- Some guys are not ready for division one football - conditioning wise
- Offense and Defensive lineman look to be in good shape
- Friday is the first full day practice - Sunday first two a days
- RR wants to do less scheming in practice and wants the team to play faster and not have to "think" and play slower. He will adjust with the coaches tonight.
- All 3 QB's took snaps
- Need to limit contact on QB's but at the same time get them ready to play
- Seniors taking leadership with the team
- Tate has a lot of work to do on and off the field but had a good practice today.
- Smith, Martin, and Molk all where 100% today after injuries last year
- Michael Shaw still in summer school and has not been approved to practice yet
- Another week and half of summer school left
- Going to have more players on defensive that can contribute
- Wants offensive line is big guys that can move only had one bad snap today
- The seniors want to pick 2 permanent captains and 2 game captains. They voted on it and will tell the team tonight.
- Won't really have an idea on starters until first scrimmage two weeks in
- The freshman are fast and likes the speed on day one
- Will Hagerup has a powerful leg and if he continues to progress should be the starter
- Safety and Corner have the best shots for the freshman to earn playing time
- Michigan and Bama conversations are on-going
- Not too concerned at RB experience - feels they have a talented group
- Kelvin Grady will play in the slot and at running back and says he is a full time football player
- He would prefer his players don't Tweet or be on Facebook, has educated them on it and there isn't a ban.
- Doesn't want to focus on Tate and the summer workouts
- Proud of Brock Mealer as any kid that he has coached, he had a 1% chance to walk and he thinks he will do it
