Hess' interceptions are not a concern since they did not happen.  He was 10 out of 15 with a td and no interceptions.  Angle was picked off twice, Nania once.  This comes from the official stats on the university website.

Last spring, it was hard to evaluate the defense since the offense had holes in the line and at wide receiver and their potency was unknown.  This spring, with virtually all the players back from the best offense in FCS (based on their performance against the NDSU defense that completely shut down supposedly unstoppable offenses from Sam Houston and Georgia Southern) we will be able to detect progress from the defense if they can just limit offensive productivity.  Actually, even if the defense can not stop this offense, they might still be improved enough.  Our offense is just that good.

being that they showed him throw at least 1 INT then id say the university website is wrong.

Agreed. The offense has been dynamic. Kravitz was a fall guy. The quins needed a "fall guy". He had little talent to work with. He was the odd man out. He'll catch on somewhere, where he has players at "D", and the 'O" stinks, and he'll look great (comparatively). And understand, I am not defending the guy, never met him. But you have to improve teams bit by bit, which is what we are doing.

We have good coaches at all positions. Wolf has done a nice job recruiting. He has his players now. And his efforts will show this year. I'm behind this group. They are attempting to play in the 'Big Leagues"......which is where we belong.

I am concerned though about all the injuries though. Who is responsible for that?

Or is it just bad luck???

2 years running???

Any answers to that question???

There is never an answer for inuries, just freak things. The team is very conditioned so that should never be a problem. Radakovich and Mady will be fine by summer camp hopefully, sitting out spring ball is not that big of a deal, gets the younger guys some experience.
