I can’t wait to see everyone’s pictures of Daryll Clark doing his fist pump.

My concern for next year is that with the inexperienced OL, we will return to out-route city. I really wish I could find that picture of Jay captioned “all I want for Christmas is a post pattern”

Hence, tomorrow I look for less than six collective out patterns

Afraid to ask if it’s a typo, afraid to go into the post and fix it considering how difficult it was to post with all of the weird-ass coding.

Paterno has obviously lost control of the program.

“Still get to hit people. It’s all good in there”

What a thug! I can’t believe Paterno hasn’t kicked him off the team already. What is this, some sort of gang or fight club?

I’m obviously going to be watching the WR’s, DB’s, OL/DL, but I’m also interested in the LB combinations. Although, I’m sure we won’t get much from tomorrow with Lee seeing limited contact and Navorro in the doghouse.

Astorino is the real deal so I think the DB’s might surprise this year.

I am worried about O-line

Evaluation

Plain and simple Dailey is a good football player. You could probably stick him at a handful of positions and he would find a way to be productive. He is a near the box safety in high school, and with some added bulk should make a nice fit as an outside linebacker at the college level. There will naturally be some adjusting on his part, but he already displays the ability to play near the line of scrimmage and be successful. He is a physical football player that does not show a fear of mixing it up with blockers. He displays the ability to use his hands to engage and shed from blockers. This will be one area where he will have to really adjust to, taking on blockers a little quicker then he is used to, but it is comforting to see him be successful when he has had to. He displays a good feel for the game. He shows that he can get over the top blocks and play sideline to sideline. He has good speed and is able to maximize it by taking good pursuit angles. He is a good tackler especially in the open field. For the most part he keeps himself under control and wraps ball carriers up. Off the edge he displays the burst to be able to be a backside pursuit player. He changes direction well. He has a good motor and is all over the place. As a pass rusher he has good initial burst and takes a good path to the quarterback. He will lower his shoulder and try and push through blockers. He will need to work on developing some moves to help him defeat a blocker on the go. He looks comfortable in space and should be a good player in coverage. He displays the ability to get his hips turned and run. Dailey is a good prospect. He will need to add size, but displays the frame to be able to do it. There will be some adjustment if he makes the move to backer, but with his play and abilities it should be a fairly smooth one.

Notes

Some thoughts:
 - The OL is my #1 concern. Wiz and Eliades have played a lot, but last year’s OL struggled on short yardage all year (Wiz got whipped on that 3rd and 1 where Green got stuffed in Q2 of the Rose Bowl). I know he and Pannell have lots of talent, but we definitely need improvement there. I hope those guys spend time together all summer like Clark and the WRs will.
 - I hope DC plays more than 3 series. I know we need him healthy but he/the whole offense needs the reps.
 - Is Brent Carter still out? I’ve liked what I’ve seen of him (and wish we saw more in the 07 MSU game).
 - I’m more concerned about the DE position than CB, mainly because we know we don’t have stud corners. If our pass defense is going to be effective it’s got to be on account of getting pressure, not shutting down receivers. I think Crawford could turn out to be a great DE like M.Haynes or C Brown but I don’t see anyone left with Maybin’s explosiveness. I have high hopes for Jerome Hayes – please keep him off special teams. He has the #5 Brad Scioli curse.
 - I’m going to predict minimal drop off in our passing offense this year. May not see as many plays but I think we have more guys who can consistently move the chains. I don’t think we can rely as much on guys to run after the catch, which I think we did in past years with DWill.

1. Parking. Will the parking people get it right, or will it be another cluster-frak instead of neat orderly rows of cars. Will I be able to get my car out without feeling like I’m playing an over-sized version of Operation. How about the communication between parking person and driver, will they lay the law down or let the drivers walk all over them. I’ll be watching.

2. Beer or wine. How much beer will I drink, and what kind. I feel like maybe Sol would go with the weather, but Coors Light is a staple. Then again, on a hot day cold white wine can be quite refreshing. It’s going to be a tought choice so maybe all 3?

3. Baggo (cornhole, etc). I haven’t played my Baggo game in over 4 months. How will I do? Will I get a hot hand and dominate? How will the heat and alcohol affect my game? Is it wrong to berate young children when I crush them at a game I asked them to play anyway?

Oh yeah, and I’m excited about a taste of football — but I’ve learned the B&W game very rarely resembles the team we put on the field come September. It’s just nice to be in SC on a sunny day in April.

I thought I read somewhere the game would be on the B10 Network? Something about on Monday night at 9.

Anyone know?

Nothing from the football game. Most years, I only go in for about 15 minutes or so.

I am, however, looking for:
1. Coeds in short skirts/shorts and tank tops. Sundresses in the evening.
2. How pissed the parking lot attendants get at us when we block off 20 spaces or so. They must not have the recent memo about how I OWN THIS MOTHERF’ER.
3. Can I regain my beer pong touch? I’ve turned in some NJIT-esque performances lately, and I need to man up.

Oh – I’m also looking for RUTS. You coming? Screw the wedding. Why should it ruin your weekend? Tailgate, brother. Tailgate.

I sent them a pissed off email about the fact that they aren’t televising the game.

You guys keep bringin it!

A Blue White Game Preview, and it was tight. Way to power through the posting issues.

Have a good weekend, all you lucky attending bastards (and beatches)!

We also need someone to suggest a site that will allow anyone to upload photos and/or video.

I don’t know if those work for videos, but they def work for pictures
