Fever, thanks for the insight. This has me really excited for this year. If the o line is healthy, and the WRs step up, plus the ab competition causing the ab play to grow, coupled with improvement on last years great defense we could be very dangerous.

We all know Ricky can run, lets just hope he isn't used just for his running ability. I don't like the 2 QB system. Everything just seems out of funk when they switch out. It all comes down to the O-Line and WR's. Wells can only do so much if the protection isn't there and the WR's aren't getting open. He will be a sitting duck all game long. Montgomery needs to have a better game plan as well.

Your welcome Yo!! I truly love this program and want the program to succeed in the worst way. I just wish I could make it to more practices and games to observe.  I don't get to caught up in rankings, but the national ranking for the penguins this year is a real smack in the face for this program with the talent that exists and it just leaves a bad taste in my mouth, but that's just how it is after coming off a 5-6 campaign. I'm not going to lie to you Yo..WE WILL FIELD A VERY, VERY, VERY, GOOD AND QUALITY TEAM FULL OF ATHLETICISM THAT WILL BE CAPABLE OF BIG THINGS..The little things last year really cost us..Keeping my fingers crossed we can avoid those things this season or work better getting through them..THE TIME IS NOW!!

Agree with you Chief. You could just tell last year Wells wasn't comfortable with the in and out stuff. He's at his best when he's in his rhythm. Never the easiest thing for your offensive line with 2 different skill sets

Not even 1 article written about practice so far in the vindy.... Shame.

I'm with you Chief - The first thing I do at 3:00 a.m when I get up is read the articles that were published and released around midnight. Even the one sideline reporter for the vindy was doing a good job at first, but has not reported anything as of late on Twitter and the same could be said for the Twitter and Instagram accounts for Y.S.U. football. As a fan this just drives me crazy. None of us want to go into the season blind..Hopefully someone starts sharing information somewhere

I liked when they used to post the interview with Wolford after each practice and he would give updates. I know that's not Bo's style and he wouldn't give specific updates even if he was interviewed but hey, take what you can I guess.

Guys, in the print edition of the Vindicator, there were articles about football practice on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.  Nothing on Monday or today.  Apparently, they did not reproduce those articles online.

FYI, realized my last post may have sounded sarcastic. It was genuine as I do not get print Vindy copies. 22 days
