I'm supposing we are less than 10 days away from reporting day and the beginning of fall camp. I still believe we have a big question mark at DE but I also believe this coaching staff will satisfactorily answer that question before our 1st game. Other weak areas have been strengthened such as DT with Massey, Jordan and possibly Herpin; LB with Wilhoit and Vaughn and some promising freshmen; DB with the addition of Mukes, O'Neal, Reynolds and Malik Jones; QB with the addition Quayde Hawkins. I see other positions as having strength and depth such as TE, WR, RB, OL and safety. A lot of interchangeable parts at those positions. Really excited to see what Ryan Pugh is able to do with our offense. Not knowledgeable enough to know how we stand at punter and kicker only that we need to be better at those positions.

I think Kayode Oladele was a great addition at the DE position, but I was hoping we would add another DE or two. Hopefully, some of the young and inexperienced guys will step up in fall camp.

I think it is tomorrow -- Sunday, July 30. I am basing that off a tweet that Coach Thrash posted 15 days ago.

If in fact our guys report today, I'm anxious to see what kind of reporting (news) we get for the fall. We have so many new guys who possibly will be starters or work into rotations. Don't know who has added weight (or lost weight) in the off season conditioning. Will there be players who will change positions (changing depth)? Just lots the things a fan might like to hear. Anxious!

Typically, before or during fall camp everyone gets weighed and measured and has new pictures made for the roster. If there are position changes I assume those will also show up.

Looked at the Abilene weather forecast for the next week. I sure hope the team has early workouts cause it is gonna continue to be hot.

Just saw on IG that the FB team was meeting this morning -- same post on Twitter and FaceBook. The posts say that the practices start this evening. Hopefully there will be a more complete article today or tomorrow.

“but it’s a dry heat” ha ha ha. Will be 100+ all this week but they are predicting a break early next week. The new turf practice field has lights so there might be some evening practice although it was 100 yesterday at 8 pm when I walked the dogs.

Short report on ACUsports. Not much but it's a start.

30 days until our 1st game vs Northern Colorado. Should be a great season. Could this be a playoff year?

Cautious, cautious, but YES, this might be a playoff year! Looks like some real talent has joined the team, which already had some fine players returning. This purple drink sure tastes good.

I'm wondering if everyone reported? If everyone's healthy.
