Practice appeared to be Kett, Zim, Grover, Brock, in that order. Didn't think it would be Kett either after last year's performance Quote
ND1 Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 Kett is #1 and it sounds like Grover #2 at least For spring ball Quote
UND-FB-FAN Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 I expect it to be Ketteringham. As said before, his numbers weren’t horrible last season and he was playing in the offense where QBs go to die. Sorry, but wipe the slate clean when it comes to QBs + Rudolph. Too many arm chair QBs have been tough on Ketteringham. Ketteringham has the potential with a uptempo spread offense which is what Freund will run. Also, he had some moments, such as the 2018 Montana game. 4 Quote

Thanks for the report. He's a heck of an athlete and it would be great to get him onto the field. He can help this team. 1 Quote
OgieOgilthorpe Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Are things looking up for next season overall? Having Freud at OC has to be an upgrade, as I can't see play calling, creativity, player usage, development, or in-game adjustments getting any worse than they've been the past 2 seasons. I know the RB position lost quite a bit of firepower, but more importantly how will the OL compare to last season? QB, WR, and the entire defense should be in better shape, correct? Kicking surely will be better as well. My novice overview would say things are looking slightly up assuming the OL is the same or slightly better. I know it's extremely early, but is my thinking somewhat on track? Quote
Popular Post Hawks_Win_Again Posted March 25, 2019 Popular Post Posted March 25, 2019 Witnessed practice this morning......crisp 2 hr. workout ..... Nothing truly live, so tough to assess us defensively, but we looked good to the point of attack in the team session...... Kettringham & the QB's looked sharp for the most part....worked a lot of mid and short pass game' and (besides a couple air mailed shotgun snaps) I would guess the staff was pleased with the day....As everyone expected, we look VERY different offensively from Rudyball....... multiple sets and diverse from play to play.....Hawk fans will REALLY enjoy this offense next fall..... Very few Hawks in shorts (injured), so it was nice to see us so healthy.... O-line numbers seemed a bit low, just seems like we should have a few more..... Overall, a nice mid-spring ball practice. GO HAWKS ! 6 Quote

GO HAWKS ! Just having a more diverse and fun offense to watch will likely put a few more butts in the seats for home games on it's own. Hopefully with that offense and a strong defense it will help bring more wins as well which will help attendance. The last four games last year were so miserable, I am SO thankful I don't have to watch another year of Rudy ball! How did JJ look, is he a little leaner this year? 2 Quote
Hawks_Win_Again Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 JJ ( maybe a bit lighter but still a big dude ) & London were among the very few not in pads....Both were pretty active & seemed not too far from being able to "go".... Quote
jdub27 Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Pretty sure London has been dinged up. Hopefully he can get through it and get on the field. Excited to see the defense a little more spread out, giving JJ room to maneuver up the middle with some speed. Not going to be a lot of defensive backs excited to step up and make that stop. 3 Quote

I know it's extremely early, but is my thinking somewhat on track? I also have a very novice look at each season, going over the roster turnover by position, how each group performed last year, ect.. Especially for Football, assuming that injuries notwithstanding that a player should become better each year with more development / strength / reps. I gave a pretty detailed breakdown of the defense a couple weeks back. The back seven only lost 3 players, spread pretty evenly that contributed last year. Two starters (CB, OLB) and a depth ILB. That's about as good as it gets. DE lost one starter also. Big question is at NG. Touching on the OL. They basically had 7 guys who contributed and could be classified as "starters". Six of them return next year. It'd be my assumption that the group should be stronger next year having six players with experience. Five of those were underclassman last year as well. There's been a couple of other names thrown out there as well, who should be able to add to the depth. Quote
SiouxFan100 Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 If there is Spring Ball going on and you don't hear anything about it is it really happening? Quote

Also, he had some moments, such as the 2018 Montana game. We don't always agree on stuff, but I agree. Kett started great last season and declined as the year went on, but some of that is circumstantial. O Line and Offensive scheme. Not saying he shouldn't shoulder some of the blame, but I say, new slate this year, and whoever is performing should be the guy, If that is Kett, then cool; If it is Grover, then good. I am hoping that whoever it is has more success with the new scheme. 1 Quote
SiouxFan100 Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 My concern about Kett is he appeared to look like a deer in headlights towards the end of last year. Quote

I think it had something to do with the fact that he spent half his time either on his backside or running for his life, ala his two years at Sac St. Quote
Ozzie82 Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 I think it's clear that Kett will start, and I think he'll have a really good year. I'm excited to see what transpires. 1 Quote
