Title: Spring Game
Post by: valpofb16 on April 24, 2022, 09:44:16 PM
Was not at the spring game but was able to talk to many that were. A few things of note.

-Over 100 juniors on-site- never before has that happened in my experience.

-Kaplan took majority of snaps at QB. Get vibe he is the future. Whether that be week 1 who knows

-Laddie Skarecky is back with the team at LB with 33 games played. Huge addition.

-Wide Receiver is banged up with Bingham and Maxwell out. Was a different group out there today.

- defense outplayed the offense despite having the less experienced line. Think new coordinator a big part of it.

- Some RSFR that made plays, Kaplan, Kobs, Merklinger, Hunter

For the most part, the scheduled downpours held off, but the game was called short after the second lightning delay. Also, many football alums and numerous signed high school seniors were invited and attended. Incoming Freshmen are encouraged to start summer practice the first week of June on campus and many are planning to come.  Thirty-two of the thirty-eight incoming Freshmen and both of the mid-year additions were team captains in high school which shows an emphasis on leadership skills.

Yes , Berry did not dress spring game so take with grain of salt. Jackson Will get second most snaps despite who wins job as his legs add something the other three really do not
