Well that's definately a good policy. Why should you play if you aren't taking class seriously? |

UD what are Steve's impressions of practice? I would be interested in hearing a freshman compare the preparation/intensity of their first year in college to the final year in HS.

When he first got there he said it was real fast, but by now he has gotten used to it. Practice is much different now then it was in Aug. Now they do more preparing during the week then anything.

yeah thats what I was tought my junior year before I became the fullback. We had 3 steps though coming off the ball....first was a short step to just get going forward the next step was to go in direction of where you wanted to go and finally the final step was the one you drove through with..... While I said some of it is imporant. there's nothing a good ole BLOCKING SLED can't do that technique can do when it comes to getting leverage..... Yeah some of it is important, but I'd think sometimes players get caught up in trying to do the right thing... but you're right about the first step... that is important but I don't think anyone should really have a huge problem with that! haha [censored] I mean as long as my lineman pushed forward and didn't move backwards I'd let it slide.....

Sorry to bring this post back from page 5, maybe, but Sims is a guard. Atleast with his size that is what he will be playing in the NFL. Who else has the Bucks had to play LT besides Sims, till Steve got PT? Like many have said the OL depth has been a question for a few years. Sims was playing LT because there was no one else.
Also, I wish people would remember that Coach Tress calls the plays, not Bollman
Also another note.. I overread alot of this post. Shane Olivea was a great player because he combined putting someone on their butt with Technique. I talked to Ryan Hamby once about him, and he said he had the best technique and that is what made him good. Grant it I love seeing the OL putting the D on their ass, but without technique the OL would be worse.
Go Bucks, less then 12 hours till kick-off!

CONFIRMED: Steve Rehring in the Hospital?
There is a thread on BN about Steve being in the hospital. It does not sound good. I hope everything is OK.

If it's coming from Underdog, it can't be much of a rumor...
Get better Steve!
