[Bryan Fuller]
Things discussed:
- Baseball is really good. Now up to #13 in the country.
- Spring takes: It was fun. Brandon Peters looked gooooood. Speight had a bad day, but that doesn’t undo a season’s worth of seeing him start, play on the road, play injured, lead a team, etc. But man, that throw to Schoenle. But Speight was under way more pressure. But Craig was a few sheets to the wind when charting it.
- The spreading: Are they getting the RBs good receiver matchups? A zone read package to bleed Peters? Making pass protection easier? All of the above, probably.
- Like the backs. Like the receivers. The secondary looks like it reloaded.
- Craig and Brian don’t agree on their favorite walk-on OL. Frey is good—smart to have multiple coaches for a position that, including TE, is over half of your offense.
- Bush can run through some guys—you can see why they like Robo but Bush is going to be hard to keep from the field.
- Khaleke Hudson is the Peters of the defense: seeing the things translate to college ball that made him such an exciting prospect out of high school.
- Can you imagine telling Don Brown he’s not allowed to blitz?
- That bonkers field goal. The other kickers looked good too. Will Hart can punt it long but takes a long time to get it off.
- Toughest game on the schedule? Brian thinks Sam is giving Penn State too much credit. Their offense in the good part of the year was too based on bombing it downfield but that’s not going to last without Chirs Godwin.
- Hurst: we’re gonna have to get used to playing more snaps. Really wish we had a Matt Godin on this roster.
