We're just off the field, and with the standard caveat that football is played in pads, here are some random thoughts on Tuesday.
After spending most of yesterday watching the defensive guys, spent most of tonight on the offensive side.
Impressed with Preston Williams (shocker, I know), looking really smooth with his routes and catching everything close to him, although obviously just working against air.
Jeff George is showing some really nice hands. The kid looks like he really needs to gain some weight, but he continues to impress with his ball skills.
Jennings still looks somewhat limited but he's really pushing himself through drills and making some nice grabs.
Brandon Johnson has generated some chatter this summer and it's not hard to see why. Not saying he's going to be a beast this year, but he clearly looks like he is a nice sleeper prospect.
I continue to be a big Jarrett Guarantano fan. Anxious to see him in live action. Best looking freshman QB that's been here in awhile IMO.
Jalen Hurd is enormous. I would think Butch will dial him back this fall not just for his own safety, but that of others as well.
On the offensive line we've talked about Nathan Neihaus' timely growth spurt, but really impressive to see that young man and how much he's grown since he was here as a recruit. Listed at 6-6, 295 and that seems legit.
