I don't know if it will be the first game or the second . . . but Alex January is going to win a starting spot.

Bank on it.

That is interesting... Not a great sign though.

Is this good or bad...or trust the coaches?

Is this good or bad...or trust the coaches?

Niblett to safety is only about Niblett trying to get on the field in some capacity. It wasn't going to happen at WR.

Applaud the man. He's doing due dilligence. Who knows? Maybe he takes to it like a duck to water?

We're not hurting at safety. But if things go right for him, he could work his way into a spot that sees plenty of PT.

Some notes from OTF today (Vogel) . . . KJ Lacy has looked superb and he said some are wondering if he doesn't surpass Owens for the back up spot. . . . French has looked good at WR, of the early enrollees, he's been further along than the rest . . . . Kaliq Lockett is taking a crash course in fundamentals and it's said he's not far off in being there. . . . . Josiah Sharma and Myron Charles have turned heads. Lots of optimism there. . . . . Justus Terry has been more than expected and may start off at the Jack position, but will at times work inside, too.

Ha! I ran a 4.2, but I don't remember how far I got either. 25 yds, maybe?

I’m so old they used a sand timer and I forgot how many times they turned it upside down for me.

Golden ran a 4.3, wow. Tops among WR. Boy has he changed his future by spending the last season at Texas.

In other news.

Seems like between his failure to back up his big talk, and his lack of production as the season progressed, can't be good for his draft prospects.
