I would be curious to know how Bohl and his staff would compare his NDSU team from last year and our team this year? Clearly, his Bison were very good last year with a great QB. From his reaction after the scrimmage he was doing all he could to contain his excitement. He had "coach speak" on full throttle. I didn't hear too much talk (positive or negative) regarding th O-line play (did I miss something??). So all in all sounds like this team is progressing nicely. For some reason, I was always skeptical when CC or Glenn talked about how well things are coming together before the season would start, but with Bohl I feel like he has a little better grasp on reality. I could be wrong.
I'm curious about his comparison too - not sure we'll ever get one but I'm dying to know.Dutchnation wrote:I would be curious to know how Bohl and his staff would compare his NDSU team from last year and our team this year?

I'd also like to hear what the players think after this camp vs. DC camp. Where they think they are compared with last year. More than just conditioning. Things like blocking scheme..easier or harder. Defense philosophy. .??

Most of the players have already expressed that on their twitter accounts and some expressed it in youtube interviews.ragtimejoe1 wrote:I'd also like to hear what the players think after this camp vs. DC camp.

Former Wyoming walk-ons Simpson, Van Maanen earn scholarships
By definition, the walk-on's life is an anonymous one.
Whereas each college football team needs its stars, it also requires the silent, hard-working, invisible masses. The walk-ons do much, and ask little. They are the voluntary foot soldiers, willing to sacrifice time and health to wear a jersey and represent a school -- if only in grueling early morning practices.
The walk-on expects no reward, and usually, he isn't granted one.
But every once in a while, the tireless work pays off.

I should have said a non-pc version. The real unfiltered version of what the players think. Not necessarily what they tell media.Wyo2dal wrote:

I think when Rufran & Olive both said they felt like they wasted the last two years it speaks volumes that this teams conditioning was pretty bad under DC. But ya I would live to hear true feelings not sugar coated.ragtimejoe1 wrote:I should have said a non-pc version. The real unfiltered version of what the players think.

It certainly explains a lot. I think Brett Smith only got better because he was always training and worked out with NFL QBs, though he regressed as the season went on while under DC.Wyo2dal wrote:I think when Rufran & Olive both said they felt like they wasted the last two years it speaks volumes that this teams conditioning was pretty bad under DC.

Smith has alluded to his his footwork and stuff going to crap because DC kept telling him "faster faster". He knew his form was crap, but he was trying to please the coach. One season under Bohl in an offense where he had to learn to read a defense would have done wonders for him...but that's another dead horse to kick.

Yeah DC doesn't have the greatest result with his star college QBs succeeding in the NFL.
If you ever need to laugh, just remember there was some idiot who wanted Bohl fired after 2 seasons.

UW fall camp – Day 15
Monday marked the last of five two-a-day practices, and the players were in shoulder pads and shorts Monday morning.
It also was the first practice since last Saturday’s scrimmage, and a day off for the players. But first-year coach Craig Bohl said some players were late to breakfast and he had to get on them prior to practice.

Notes and Quotes: Wyoming fall practice No. 18
INJURY OUTLOOK
Bohl got some good news on the injury front on Monday, as starting left tackle Nathan Leddige and sophomore Lucas Wacha -- both of whom had been battling concussion symptoms -- practiced fully.
Redshirt sophomore running back D.J. May did not participate in practice, though he didn't appear to be seriously injured. He did not play in Saturday's scrimmage wither for precautionary reasons.
