Falcons Scrimage Report
There's not a lot to say. It was hot, and the team seemed to play well. I always worry at these things...I mean, if the offense scores on every drive, that might or might not reflect on the D. And, if the D stops them on every drive, well, that might be great D or lousy O. Having said that, I'm pretty confident we can score. And we didn't score too much today, which makes me think maybe the D is improved under a new Coach. We especially seemed to play the run well.
Omar didn't get a ton of the snaps. Turner got more than his share, which is smart. Corey Partridge had a nice score for the #2 O...that kid is a player (playa!). No other description is available.
Placekicking is a big concern. Timichenko nailed a 47-yarder into the wind, but was blocked on another long one with the wind. I hope none of the games come down to a field goal. On the other hand, he might be capable.
Coach Brandon awarded scholarships to junior linebacker Jon Jakubowski (Rossford HS) and sophomore offensive linemen Andrew Stanford(Toledo St. Francis) as camp broke. Jakubowksi is in his fourth year with the program and has been a special teams standout and Stanford is in his third year and is listed second on the depth chart at left guard. Its always great to see walk-ons make good. Its part of the real spirit of college athletics.
I'm really looking forward to seeing this time on the field. Coach says were banged up on D, and I think I saw John Haneline leave in a neck brace. Let's hope we're healthy and ready for Wisconsin. Let's bring home the MAC Championship.
