    ETA: Of yeah, substance. Most notable things to me: (1) Shader's move sounds permanent. And dude apparently looks solid at WR. (2) Osiris Mitchell, despite being the leading returning WR, has work to do. I've heard Leach discuss several other receivers recently in more positive terms than he did Osiris today. (3) Austin Williams, the practice legend, is apparently running with the starters for real.

    NEVER forget that Ovirus Mitchell almost single handedly cost us a win of Florida in Slo Joe's first year by dropping an easy touchdown pass. I will never forgive him for that. Yep, for sure, he's got a LOT of work to do.

    It was a bad drop but we ran a whole lot more plays than that one in that game and looked terrible in almost all of them. Even if he scores that only gives us 13 points for the game and we still might have lost. So like I said, bad moment but Osirus was just a symptom of way bigger problems.

    On the flip side, I soured on him last year when we were running the two minute drill against Kansas State late in the ball game and he was walking back to the line of scrimmage and taking his dear sweet time. I guess you can also say that was a symptom of a bigger culture problem, but it still made me mad.

    That being said, I feel almost certain that Leach can get more out of Osirus than Dan and Joe ever did. If not then Leach won’t hesitate to put someone else in, plain and simple.

    I was thinking it was either Antonio Hargro or ONeal Wilder with the drop.

    While we are talking about big drops, Leon Berry had one of our biggest in the 2010 game vs Auburn. Catch would have put us in FG range, and we lost by 3. I don't remember him being a pass dropper, but that was a bad one.

    I mean he was a true freshman and we should have recruited other receivers so that he wouldn't have been in that spot. And Joe should have been able to put up more points at home than that.

    It's Osirus and not Ovirus. He didn't intentionally drop that ball on purpose and he remembers it too, and would love to have that play back. Not forgiving him seems a little harsh. Football players are human too.
