..I am convinced that this is the best Skins site on the web. I love the insight.

I'll second that emotion! Thanks BH and hope the recovery from the effects of HailSkins is going well.

Could Manuel White and Neo (I forget his name) contribute to the offense a lot this year.

Try reading the report guys... because I pretty much answered the portis and the Nemo questions there.

Manuel White hasn't made much of an impression on me at all but like I said... THEY AREN'T RUNNING THE BALL AT THE OPEN PRACTICES.

And no Smithian, Steven Harris didn't make any plays... no need to ask me any more either... if he makes a play, I'll let you know. :wink:

coaching staff question ..now that the staff has been in place for a year now are there any changes that you can see that really standout or has nothing changed at all.example all the false starts,personal fouls and the little things that are so unacceptable.

My memory isn't the greatest but I dont remeber any offensive line penalties during the scrimmage. Yea I know it was JUST a scrimmage but if we were getting penalties in the scrimmage than that'd be a 10 page thread. :lol:

Sorry... I missed this.

This year there are officials calling EVERY play of every 11-on-11 drills. In previous camps they have enlisted the use of officials at various points of camp, but not every moment of every practice like this year. They even call some of the 'one-on-one' drills.

This was obviously designed to help address the penalty situation.

The only DRILL I have seen used to address penalties is the special teams drill that I wrote about in Tuesday's report. Danny Smith had the kickoff teams practicing their timing.
