Today's 08/19 Practice Report is available

[Brad]

• Asked what specifically had the team improved upon the last two days and Leavitt talked about the team attacking things, having better focus and being more diligent.

• On the position change front, he has Kenneth Luberice working at defensive end and said that linebackers Alonzo McQueen and Chris Robinson have also taken reps at DE.  Robinson moved to defensive end during the regular season last year, before shifting back to linebacker this past spring. Luberice and sophomore RB Richard Kelly are competing for upback position on the punt team.

• Coach Leavitt has been impressed with the No. 1s on defense  and offense and admitted that they have been, “working them real hard.”  He’s happy with his No. 2 units and the amount of snaps they are receiving.  When practice is short, like today, they have been keeping the No. 3 units out for some scrimmage work. He called QB B.J. Daniels play today, “fantastic,” and RB Shawn Cannon’s blocking, “tremendous.”

I hope Kelly can win the upback position on the punt team as I would rather have an RB running with the ball on fake punts than an LB.  Even when Josh Balloon ran a fake punt a few years ago, at least he was an ex-RB.

"Cannon should be the #1 RB" he said, dripping with sarcasm.

Did Ford drop to 4th string ?

I forgot about Cannon.  What do we have, 18 RBs?
