After seeing 2 spring practices, Sam goes position by position highlighting basically everyone on the 3 deep.

Summary:

Tommy is the best QB, but still makes bad mistakes

POB is learning

Wilbon is getting a shot with the 1s at RB

Ozigbo is a more agile Cross

Carter should be a weapon

OL is Gates and everyone else

These remarks are borderline stupid. Tommy is the best QB (after two freakin' practices - are we to be surprised or something that POB is not clearly the best?)?

POB is learning? I would hope so - he is a student athlete!

Wllbon getting a shot? We were told that he would. So?

Ozigbo is more agile than Cross? We saw and therefore knew that last year! Tell us something we don't know maybe?

OL is Gates and everyone else? Well we expected Gates would be our best didn't we? Bunch of new guys that didn't get much playing time last year? What would you expect after a few practices after taking several months off?

These are supposed to be informed and intelligent reporters who should presumably know something about the topics they are writing about?

Simmer down...

Maybe you should actually read the article instead of my borderline stupid takeaways.

 
84HuskerLaw lol. WTF dude read the article.

TA...more summary...better than ever as an athlete. Still doesn't choose targets wisely.

HC Mike commented recently about the run game and the passing game off the run game. I think Mike has a plan to make things go better for TA this year. More running, less passing overall. Also more rollouts and play action to hopefully get (force) TA to take more of what is open (run or pass) rather than locking on to a deep or middle guy who ends up not being a smart target.

 
Sounds like Tommy is still being Tommy. Maybe once the season starts he ends up having a better year this year. I'm really hopeful but my gut says it's going to be more or less the same Tommy Armstrong this season that we had last season. A playmaker at times and frustrating at others yet the best we have at QB. If he could just clean up his game man that would make such a huge, huge difference.

Glad Wilbon is finally seeing time with the 1's. Really hopeful that Westerkamp and especially DPE can get over their injuries.

This is Tommy's last year of playing organized football.

I hope he understands what he can accomplish if he puts his mind to it.

Then I hope he ignores that and starts doing what the coaches tell him.

Seriously, he's a great athlete who sometimes acts like he's in a comic book.
