Interesting that we've heard "not a word." In the last years we at least heard about sign in day with an official ACU sports post. What gives?

KTXS at least gave us a little nugget to savor:

There have been multiple Instagram stories. Mostly video of practice.

Our students have migrated toward Instagram. No FB and not much Twitter except for athletes. Can’t keep up.

ACUTV needs a Youtube channel.

Correct, let me rephrase, ACU needs a Youtube channel with more and better coverage.

Well, it is August 9 -- 4 days since the FB team reported and there has yet to be any kind of season preview on the team. Disappointing. There has been some still pics on IG and Twitter, so I know for certain that they are on campus.
I liked the interview that Noah Gross did for KTXS and I think it is interesting that the O-line comes up specifically. I still don't know what the O-line will be like, but they certainly will have a lot of bodies out there. Will there be enough O-linemen who impress the coaches to have 10-12 who can play with some regularity? Still don't know that, but there ARE a lot of bodies.

I guess our new SID is finding out how hard it is to get info from this football staff. Last year, even with the challenges of Covid, we had position reports starting on July 27. By this time in August we'd had 4 reports--OL, TE's, RB's and QB's. This year after 6 days (Wed-Monday) we don't even know how many or who reported to fall camp. In previous year's the first day of camp was always a big news day for ACUSports.com. I should have patience but I'm like a thirsty man wandering in the desert--a sip or two would go a long way but nothing. Since I'm not a student and am not on Instagram, I guess I'll get nothing until we play SMU. I picked up the 2021 Dave Campbell High School edition while in Texas; guess I'll just plod thru reports on 1,400 high schools while waiting on a report about the team I really care about.
By the way--Oscar reported on a "supposed" starting OL a while back. Was there some evidence for his choices? I really like many of our new pickups but would think Jax Andrews and Bronson Warner might also be in that mix. How about Anthony Smith at RB? Will be play? I'd think there was some real talent there. Lots of questions. A week in to the fall practices last year, there was a scrimmage. Any news about that (or just a rumor--that would be enough for me)?

My post was based on the Captain’s conversation with our Offensive Coordinator who shared his preliminary thoughts about starters. .

The Captain is going to practice tomorrow. Will let you know hat I see. Without numbers on the roster, may be difficult to tell who’s who.
