Jake Weinstock recaps his observations from Saturday night's scrimmage at Yulman Stadium:
All three of Brendan Sullivan, Kadin Semonza, and Jake Retzlaff took reps with the first and second team offenses, and each had their moments.
Maurice Turner appears closer and closer to locking down his status as the lead running back, or at least as the 1A option. I still expect more of a committee approach than we saw during the past two seasons with Makhi Hughes.
Reese Baker took all of the first team reps at right tackle, with Darion Reed manning the same spot for the second team. That meant the first team had a lot of Landry Cannon and John Bock (who exited with something that did not seem major) at right guard.
Unlike Thursday, it was E'zaiah Shine and not Jayden Lewis taking the first reps at field corner with the first team defense. That particular position battle appears to be between those two men, with Troy transfer LJ Green seemingly being a bit behind both of them.
Jake, thanks again for this content… appreciate all you do to keep us informed.
nolasilver I see what you posted on yogwf. The problem is you posted the link. Some already know how to get around paywalls once you have the link. Plus just this week we had someone on one of our most trafficked sites give specifics on how to get around paywalls once you have the link. So the simple solution is just post that FTW has their scrimmage report up. It's really good and you should subscribe. As to your claim of giving opinions you can't give one unless you have seen it yourself. You say you synthesize. Well part of that comes from the paid site. As to the ones claiming it's ok to give it away they are just…
Whoever nolasilver is just gave this away for free on the yogwf site.
Good to hear.
This is a really encouraging report. Thank you.
