At Niner nights last night and man we are going to get crushed by NIL. Coach specifically mentioned DuBose and Spencer as kids with P5 in their ears and how if anyone has a NIL connection for them let him know.
One quoteā āthe days of an Alex Highsmithā¦. ā. Then he trailed off and never finished the line.
There was big praise of Chris Reynolds. Interesting enough Archie Manning spoke really high of him and his time at the passing clinic. There was some talk during the casual part that heās hitting some draft boards as a late pick just because heās so smart about the position.

Reposting this here since it got ālostā in the catch-all 2022 college football thread. Piece also includes quotes from AAC commish Mike Aresco:
Will is young and idealistic. Good for him. Good for the program too.
If ron actually said that he should have been fired on the spot.
What did Ron say? I dont see itā¦never mind, i see it nowā¦he canāt leave soon enough.
Iām still not seeing it, rhat did he say?
Believe they are referring to this:
Its one thing if you are a bad coach. Fire him, move on but to take pride in players moving on to ābiggerā programs is embarrassing.
Iām so damn proudā¦
Warning: it is paywalled.
Wonāt post it all, but here is a tidbit.
āItās been amazing. Personally, I feel free,ā safety Solomon Rogers said about the new defensive staff. āWeāre playing football. Itās not rocket science. Itās a game that we played at a young age that we just loved to do, and now weāve got people around us that are allowing us to feel like kids again.ā
Healy stated that the group is āgetting its swagger back,ā and thereās been evidence of that at the start of fall camp with plenty of new and returning playmakers finding their rhythm. Brown has implemented a completely new scheme, consisting of multiple fronts and presnap movements, much to the playersā liking.
Man, if we have a defense this could be a fun season!
I always wonder why we bring in the winter sports coaches to this event. Wouldnāt it make more sense to bring out the other fall coaches, like our menās soccer coach, who leads the most successful program on campus?
