It'll be ok. Ben said he and the coaches point out the player mistakes to them in and from practices, scrimmages, and other preseason play, and correct them, until the players are ready to recognize and correct any mistakes themselves during regular season play. That readiness by the team will go a long way in determining who starts and who won't. I think we'll be fine. :)

Ben has openly talked about how he uses scrimmages to expose weaknesses and he lets the guys figure things out. He more or less expects to lose them, as he wants to see what needs to be worked on before the season starts. Really smart when you think about it, no one pays attention to scrimmages and they count for nothing in the record books, and it comes with the advantages playing another team. Now Ben has a month to work out the issues. You'll get the usual chest thumping from our dorky rivals, but it turned out pretty well for us last year.
