I guess in two weeks we'll know if this team can run, pass and tackle

Loss a little wool based on comments coming out of last night's scrimmage. Is this team going to be more like the Kang's best teams or more like Croom's normal teams or something in between? Please let it be more Kang than Croom,

Why I shy away from any "pratice reports" between now and the first game. I don't need to know how they look against our scrubs, when they suit up for the first game, then we'll start taking notes.

Especially one you didn't even see.

I can guarantee you it'll be something in between.

that beating Memphis as in blowing them out will really tell us how good we are. However, if we win and play poorly against them, I would say that we could tell that we're not very good or at the wooliest have a ways to go.

As for out practice, I think our defense will be a lot better with our defensive line. Like someone said somewhere- we just better hope that we don't have a lot of injuries.

Right now, I'm more worried about the offense than anything. I don't trust Relf throwing the ball, and we don't have a back that we can count on yet. I think we have some promising WR's, but again, can Relf get them the ball, or will he nail a port-a-pottie.

What I want to see out of this year are two things:

1. Progress from all of the players every week.

2. Go to a bowl, even if it's in Tehran. Just go somewhere. That basically means that we improved our win total from last year.

I think this could be like 1997 in that we kind of do some things that springboard us into having a lot of success over the next couple of years and hopefully beyond. In 1997 we beat Auburn and Alabama on the road, and I think we took some things from those games into 1998 even though we ended the year on a disappointing note. Hopefully, we won't end the season on a disappointing note, though.
