@Toe raises some good points, but part of this also has to do with social media engagement strategy.

A lot of mobile social media users use their phones in places they can't really listen to audio: school, work, a meeting, etc. Placing text on screen (particularly in a fun or creative way) increase the likelihood someone will stick around to watch the clip. Otherwise, if there is no sound, they may just keep scrolling because there's little use trying to lip read.

"He's [Chinander] great at giving us all the looks. Great," Austin said after that practice on April 7. "I talk to him about it every day. Those guys, I love them to death. But sometimes it's, 'Oh, you got us.' I'm in the meeting room and (say), 'OK, you ran a better defense than our play.' Or situationally, if you're in a third down-and-15, and they're in a zero blitz, to practice that, it's awesome."

Zero blitz! Anyone remember Diaco sending 7 rushers?

 
They tackle in practices now. Obviously the NCAA doesn't allow it for every practice, but they do tackle in practice now. That is a nice change. Love it. 

 
Mo Barry says that Gebbia is the hardest QB to defend; he also likes Greg Bell and Mike Williams on O.

My money is on him not getting in shape on his own over the summer.

He's #3 on my list of players to transfer out.

Which would be a Got Damn shame; the kid has a lot of talent to tap into.

Ruud said that Avery Roberts is not in good shape.  So unless he was injured and couldn't get into shape, this is pretty inexcusable on his part.

Absolutely makes no sense when he sees the rest of his team working their asses off over winter and getting big gains and buying into the staff.  He either knew he was leaving a long time ago or really isn't a very competitive guy that wants to do what it takes to succeed.

There could be a lot going into this.  Iirc, it took a lot for Bray to get him to commit because he was leaning closer to home.  It could be that could be driving him to not put in 100% effort.
