not sure of the exact gate that they want people to enter tcf stadium at. but i am sure it will be pretty obvious once one actually gets there.

Not obvious at all. Just kept walking around until we found it.
 

Being house-bound, I hope to see some comments (in the "official thread for spring football, of course) from you guys who are there. Enjoy!

As Supadupafly said "it will be pretty obvious once one actually gets there" and I bet that was the case. You might say that is a little bit like saying I know pornography when I see it.:confused:
 




68 and sunny my a$$. How did they look? Anything/one stand out?
 

Devin Crawford-Tufts had a few drops that Kill did not like. Cobb and Gillum look good at RB. Fruechte is better than I expected, would be surprised if he does not contribute this year. Aaron Hill continues to look good at LB (the two practices that I have seen), wonder where he fits in? Ben Perry and Austin Hahn looked decent in the mini-scrimmage. Q's accuracy is much better than where he was last year at this point.

Curran Delaney #89 - listed as 6-1 300 pounds in the roster, so probably a Tackle. and I'm also curious about his chances.

Curran Delaney "named Most Valuable Player for Holy Family High School in 2003 • also earned the team's Best Defensive Player award in both 2002 and 2003 • earned All-River Conference accolades • recorded the first touchdown, interception and two-point conversion in Holy Family football history."

He's going to turn 27 during the 2012 season, and is 7 years older than teammate and fellow Holy Family graduate--2010 Minnesota Mr. Football--Peter Westerhaus. Now that's incredible.

Boy, if Ekpe is playing as well as it sounds, I really hope we have enough other guys that we could red-shirt him. It sounds like he could be special, eventually.

That is encouraging...However, if the punters are as mediocre or bad, as reports say, then it could be a frustrating season.
 

As a team they are much farther along than last year. I have less worries about the receiving corps, Gillum and Cobb look like they're running neck and neck, to be the feature back. I don't think the O-Line has been sorted out yet but it looks to be coming together. The D-Line much like the O-Line is still being sorted out. There is definitely talent there but I have no clue what the final rotation will look like. The Linebackers seem pretty well sorted out with Beal as a wild card. The JUCO transfers will definitely make the secondary better but I think nothing will be settled until fall camp. Sorry to be a bit vague but I don't think I can get more specific than that.
 



That was great! bein right there on the field 7-10 ft away from the action. How many other big ten teams are letting you right down there. i'll be back!

I'd say it was better than reported. Two bad kicks, about 8 good ones. They'll figure it out.
