I'm getting the itch and it is only March. Spring practice and the eternal hope that comes along with it has a tendency to do that. I miss the game already. I keep reading the stories and wishing it was September already. I find myself looking forward to pre-season rankings just because I know the real deal is just around the corner.
The off season has been interesting so far and here are some quick tidbits. No, I'm not going real in-depth just going to graze the top:
What is happening in Oregon? Chip Kelly has his hands full with the misconduct of his Duck football players. After last seasons opening night fiasco you would have thought that Oregon had put come of these transgressions behind them.
Urban Meyer is back!!!! Just ask the Orlando Sentinel reporter who asked a question concerning John Brantley as quarterback over Tim Tebow.
Speaking of old Timmy. Seems he is drawing interest from some pro teams concerning playing quarterback in the NFL. I think it would be a shame if Tebow do not get a fair shot in the NFL after being one of the most highly decorated college football players of all-time.
Brian Kelly is working hard to get Notre Dame on the right track after the Charlie Weiss era came to and end. Kelly is preaching discipline. On and off the field.
Louisville is opening spring practice and new head coach Charlie Strong has come out and said, "We need some leaders". The first time head coach is trying to turn the program around after Steve Kragthorpe did not live up to expectations for the Cardinals.
Florida State is a different program. All the reports coming out of Tallahassee say everything about the program has a different feel to it under Jimbo Fisher.
All I have for right now but I will be picking up the pace over the next few weeks.

FSU better be different after the train wreck it turned in to. Jimbo will do well. I hope the new defensive scheme can keep up with our offense this season.
ReplyDeleteDid Urban Meyer ever go anywhere?????? He quit, came back, took a leave of absence but right back on the sidelines when spring practice begins.
ReplyDeleteThe Gators will be an after thought this season. Tebow gone...Strong gone...Cooper gone...lots gone...Yeah they have Brantley and some other talent but come on....
ReplyDeleteMeyer is a pompous ass. I read the story about the reporter asking the question you refer to in your blog. I think it was a legit question and can not for the life of me think why Meyer should be pissed at the reporter. He must be having separation anxiety with his Timmy-Poo gone.
