    Any info from practice?

    Anyone hearing anything? Good? Bad? Besides the yearly obligatory we are going to run it more rumors.

    I heard you couldn't catch RaRa in a phone booth. Or maybe they were still talking about Ray Ray?

    I agree, its usually the same thing said every year. 'So and so has stepped up and had a good off season' 'He's lost 15 pounds' 'He's gained 15 pounds of muscle' 'We still have work to do but I like the direction of the team' ...... But it's still nice to read or hear about it and gives us some sort of hope for the season.

    Per Austin Williams this fall Will is very vocal during practice. Last year he let Leach call out players for their eff ups. This fall he's been chewing on some asses. Austin says Will is very comfortable with the offense now.

    Derrick Taite is the only player to play at State longer than Williams. His 8 years at QB seemed like a lifetime

    Rosebowl said that Leach told one of the defensive players that water sux, Gatorade is better

    Practices reports are not bad, or necessarily inaccurate. You just have to keep perspective.

    If they tell you a guy beat his man and made a great catch, people get too excited and then feel let down when the guy does nothing in the fall. That same receiver may be a poor blocker, and consistently runs the wrong routes. And the great catch was made while going against the 3rd string corner. And he had two drops earlier in practice. But realistically the catch was legit and he's a freshman and is working hard and developing and will be pretty good in 2 years.

    I think the practice reports are great. I think message board posters tend to jump to conclusions or lose perspective.

    You mean like when our place kickers never miss in practice then rarely make during the game when it counts ? ... sorry, I just couldn't resist the cynicism but I do enjoy what practice reports we get
    OXFORD, Miss. (WTVA) - Ole Miss campus police ask students to behave at future baseball games following a recent incident.
    The university said students were reportedly throwing rocks at Georgia baseball players during last weekend's series.

    That’s actually a very good example. If our kickers are truly accurate in practice, then there is nothing wrong with reporting it. But perspective is understanding that while that’s promising, it’s only practice and there is no guarantee that they will perform that well in front of big crowds on Saturday, when you could be on the road, weather could be bad, etc. Practice is a controlled environment.
