Camp opens next week. What are we looking for?
We "think" Shapen and Booth will be in the backfield game 1.
So, how conservative will Lebby play it at USM? 40 runs and 25 passes? Try to stretch the field early and often? Try to just run it down their throat?

Camp starts tomorrow right?

You are correct. My mistake.

I am interested to see if the run game picks up where we left off with the improvements late last season.
Interested to see a 2 deep across the defense and the OL.

The trenches are definitely a concern. I am hoping the buzzards need some adjusting to Huff's style and we get to play a lot of guys on both lines because we are having success, not just in a 3 minute mop up time.
I know a lot of discussion has been about the ASU game and its importance but that game will mean absolutely nothing if we struggle to a 1 score win or shudder to think, lose in Hattiesburg!

The trenches. What do we have going on in the trenches? That is the theme of the season.
Walk like the King or walk like you don't care who the King is

The DL and have they learned even the basic technique of penetration of the opposing line. Which they had no clue how to do last year.

Th scheme plus technique was bad last year. QB's had 5-6 seconds to find open receivers and they were usually open by 5 yards. What amazes me is every team we play has DBs covering our receivers like they are their slow dance partners. The DB's were running our routes just like our receivers. So, definitely D-line improvement and if we are running the 3-4 or 3-3-5, we have to send an extra rusher nearly every down or we make easy for their 5 to block our 3. That doesn't make sense to me.

Almost every year I read that our receivers have great speed, but as you have pointed out I constantly see little to no separation with the DB's. Read yesterday from the position coach interviews that we have a WR with world class Olympic speed this year. From the "Coachspeak" in all these articles this week we should easily win the SEC. Let's see success on the field this year, not talk. We'll know soon.

The main thing was the Line looked as lost as a JOMO coached OL. They were getting blown off the LOSS like they were standing straight up. They couldn't make plays because they were flat on their backs most of the time. It would've been better if they just threw themselves in the gap and plugged the holes//

Shi% I didn't know that.

Dinkins is our best retuning DL. McLendon was a freshman pressed into service because we had no depth
