They need to be give a very fair shake on the starting job, it will effect recruiting, coaching jobs and fan turn out. If Simon wins that will not hype the students and fans, up like the new toy like JTJ and the unused toy in Jerry. You loose fans you loose games, we are a home team have one of the best home records since the Alerus opened and can't afford to not have the building rocking.
Tom will never be clear with his comments cause his whole goal is to drive views on Herald web site so they make money. If he says JTJ or Jerry had been playing with the 1s and 2s, and Simon has been with the 3s the last 5 practices it would be boring for the storyline. He keeps that key piece on information out of his articles on purpose. Wish we had a few more sports writers who can write about camp so we get multiple views on things.
I don't get his infatuation with Romfo. He never moved the needle last year. Once teams stopped the run he wasn't good enough to sling the rock past 15 yards without it being a duck.
I agree they could have ran all day, I think the issue is they are doing another new offense and JTJ is learning a whole new one. The the two transfer WR looked fast as hell and shifty, Deng looked much improved with separation and the oline looked good. The redshirt freshman #69 from Iowa looked good at both guard positions had 3 pan cakes i would be surprised if he might start by the end of the year. The CB also looked much much improved.
Defense is alot further ahead then the offense is. I will say both the offensive and defensive line look solid. The real surprise is the Defensive Backs look faster, and have 2 picks so far.
