For those who attended the spring game: do our players look substantially stronger and fitter than they have in years past? Linemen especially ...
I know looks aren't everything, but I think they are a reasonable indicator of progress. |

Of course, a certain former CN editor was proclaiming that the players were passing the eye test last year, it might just be a matter of perspective...

I know that the linemen aren't carrying around huge beachballs like they were a couple of years ago... | |

Well on campus when I run into most football players I don't see them wearing glasses, but maybe they are wearing contacts...

Actually, yes. I discussed this with someone in the stands. They all looked to be in pretty good shape, and we were excited because they all had summer conditioning ahead of them. |

The lineman pass the eye test.
As far as size I don't think the DL and LB pass the eye test | |

I thought James Smith, Chris Singleton, and Devin McDowell did. James Smith has some guns. He may be a poor man's Bob Sanders. | |
