First Day; 'Intense'

  • Unlike a lot of camp-opening practices, this one -- which avoided the high heat and humidity prevalent later in the day -- seemed more effective and more organized, third-year cornerback Bradley Roby said.

    "You can tell just by the practice: It's totally different than coach Tressel's (practices)," he said. "Just the whole intensity of practice is more urgent, there's more intensity, it's more competitive. (The coaches) stress the competitiveness so it brings out more."

    Roby said the summer conditioning program run by head strength and conditioning coach Mickey Marotti was "high intensity" every day and that the team grew closer through the workouts. He also said the workouts helped him gain five pounds of muscle while at the same time lowering his 4.40 40-yard dash speed to a really quick 4.39.

    "...And I ran the 4.39 twice," Roby said, "so it wasn't a fluke."

    Sophomore Chase Farris practiced in a scarlet jersey with the offensive linemen today. ... Braxton Miller set his alarm for 4:30 a.m. And then 10 minutes later he got a call from his position coach Tom Herman, who was just making sure his quarterback was up and about. He was. ...

  • Love it! Get some baby! Of course I want us to win every game this year. 10-2 is what my thoughts are at this point. Just as long as we hang a major ass thumping on an undefeated scUM team!

    Great info. I'm assuming it was just a mistake, but they labeled Garrett Goebel as a offensive lineman?

    Ya I would assume that was a mistake. Haven't heard anything about him playing on offense.

    I have no problem beating a winless scUM team every year. Doesn't bother me at all.

  • I'm curious about Cardale Jones. Has he bought in yet, or is he still going through the motions?
