Watching the Pitt preview on FSN, nothing new, they just keep rehashing things. I do like the “250, 9 time national champ” stickers Peterson revealed for the helmets this year though.

I hate to relay this information on Roberts, but he was getting an earfull at practice on wednesday. Of all the players out there, he was getting screamed at the most, by far. Bennett seemed none too pleased at many points…not that he’d tell the media this, of course. I don’t know if it was because he’s behind, or he’s trying to put pressure on him knowing that he’s going to be a very important part right now, but it didn’t seem like Bennett was very happy with his performance at all. He seemed to be lined up incorrectly at times, but it was moreso that he was agressive enough…he’d backpedal instead of move forward at the snap…end up giving the D a few extra yards…took some bad angles to RBs coming around the edge…

Like i said, i’m hoping this was just because he now has a very important position and wanted Tristan to realize it, not that he was as bad as it sounded. Kind of like “good isn’t good enough anymore, we need great…”

When did Droney and Bellovich play? I guess Coach Dixon and the rest of the coaches who have offered Droney don’t know as much as you do! Bellovich can’t even dribble with his left-hand!

Thomas has been getting by on his high school rep since he got here.

My friend’s name is Corey Bellovich and I’m sorry, your nuts if you think Droney is amazing. While I know one-on-one doesn’t determine who’s better in a team game, Corey beat Droney 11-1 and Droney wouldn’t even play him anymore.

Sucks….but you HAD TO KNOW that was going to happen. Did you seriously think NCAA would do something right?

Nice article today in the Indianapolis Star puffing up Clint Sessions. Because of an injury he has earned an opportunity to start for the Colts. The DC likes his aggressiveness and ability to make the big hit… of course he also mentions that his penchant for trying to make the big play sometimes gets him out of position…last week it happened and a Falcon running back scampered for 63 yards because of it. Sounds familiar, eh? Still good to see a Panther doing well and getting some publicity.

Ah ok, thanks Chas for clearing it up. You almost need a PhD in Chaos theory to understand some of these NCAA rules. Thanks for clearing it up…

The math makes perfect sense to the NCAA President Myles Brand - - - his previous job was in the Big 11 at IU.
