Spring Football - 2005 (mega-merge)

"I got the baby fat off. I weigh about the same, about 210, but I'm leaner. I got a little bit quicker," said Haw.

Quicker??? is that possible?

Quickness and speed are two totally different things. Quickness relates to how fast one makes a move (cuts, turns, going from one speed to another, etc.), whereas speed is just how fast someone can go flatout. Ever see drag races where one car would win with a quick elapsed time and yet the losing car would have a higher speed at the finish line? Reason is that the first car was "quicker" despite the second car having a "faster" top end. Bam Childress was one of the quickest WRs I've ever seen, although he definitely wasn't the fastest. If Haw maintains his warp factor top end speed while getting quicker off the line and with his moves, then he could be really something.

Did anyone else notice Zwick's back foot off the ground on his throw? Maybe he is beginning to break his habit? Or maybe it was just an abbiration caught on camera.
It was photo-shopped!

Seriously, he needs to solidify his mechanics IN THE GAMES if he wants to hold of T Smith and start. i was disappointed to see that in the Alamo bowl game, he still was not setting his feet properly - even before the pulled hammy.
It was like he had been studying Tim Couch videos all season.

Is it august yet?

It's official, I bought my 2 tickets and me and the little lady will be down. I don't see us making it at 6, 7, 8 or even 9...but 10 is definitely reasonable. I'll bring some Cokes (not the big drinker) and dogs or something, but I mainly want to go to see some of the faces of you geeks. :)

SO who is going to hold themselves responsible for the "Hello My Name Is" stickers because I think these are KEY. They'll be hilarious and it'll be a huge riot to see who is who on this wacked out board.
Where can you get those stickers? Like Office Depot or Staples or something?

Keep your ears to the ground on Lane. I have heard he could be special & has impressed some of the coaches & players w/ his potential. I have heard he is extremely quick w/ very lose hips. I am looking forward to hearing more nugget's from this position, DE & TB as we get deeper into camp. I will definitely be watching these positions closely during the spring game!:biggrin:

Yeah you're definatley right last year they were very high on Lane, and to tell you the truth I feel like a dumb ass cuz I totally forgot about him! NO doubt that Lane should have a shot as well, but out of last years freshmans they like Welch a bit more because he might be a bit better of a tackler. As of Right now you have to believe that welch, Lane, Everett, Whitner, O'neal, and both underwoods have as good of a shot as anyone. I really don't see this a problem or hole in our defense though. What I do see is this kinda being a luxury where else do you get to pick from those type of names?


Yeah Kicker we're waiting word on Torano, and Houston. Skeete and Petrious (spelling) are also going out for kicker, and Trapaso has been doing all the punting as of right now.

For more info on Whitner and the cornerback situation check out the Buckeye 50 Yardline. Whitner is not intirely happy with his move to corner. But he will do it. Like most of the Glenville kids, he speaks his mind!

Not to mention that Fox was playing with a hip injury that game. :roll1:



You're shittin' me, right? I guess you slept through the early-2002 games when EJ Underwood was getting torched more often than Tiki lamps at a luau. He should've changed his name to IM Underfoot, as in under the feet of opposing receivers.
Bring back McNutt and his Heisman campain!
