Maybe a different perspective:
1) We walked into practice a bit early with the rest of the players, strapped on our knee braces and went to work. Our DL is wearing the same knee braces as you'd see from the OL, but holy cow, do these guys look athletic for their size. And good lordy, TJ Barnes is an absolute gargantuan. Not as athletic or slimmed down yet, but he is in Jon Carman's range.
2) I'm not so sure about the little birdie's comments of recent.
3) Our kickers look strong, how effective is unclear to a novice like me.
4) Two hours absolutely flew by. Tech puts out a roster with numbers which is very helpful. The practices are broken into five minute intervals. These guys are highly efficient with their practice time. There is very little standing around, there is virtually zero goofing off, it is highly efficient.
5) The coaches and assistants work their butts off too for two straight hours.
6) Jaybo Shaw looked very steady to me today. I didn't see all his work, but he looked very steady to me and head and shoulders above the rest of the QB's that practiced.
7) Melton looks great. He's big and athletic and I think fits Johnson's system perfectly. I was also impressed with R. B. Clyburn. BeBe is even bigger than last year. I think their size alone is an advantage in Johnson's system.
8) Dwyer is Dwyer, we could use some B Back Backups. I did see Tongo run right with Dwyer across the field once. I was impressed.
9) Marcus Wright may be the smallest player in the NCAA this year. We could use some A Back Backups.
10) Our OL could use some backups.
11) When the first team defense is on the field, I found it hard not to watch the DL and Morgan Burnett. Nothing against the rest, but these guys are very noticeable.
