It's possible. But there hasn't been a ton of guys who have reclassified and been major factors their freshman year. Granted, its more common now so that could change but so far most of those guys sit or play sparingly especially at the major programs. There may be a couple exceptions though, I think there is a guy at Ohio State who played a good bit last year on defense.

I agree but Williams was Mr. Football in AL his soph and junior years and would have been his senior year. Nobody has ever won the award more than once. I don't typically give such high praise to freshmen but he seems different. We will see.
"......don`t tell anyone ". Hate to break it to you but way too many already know!
Really hoping we get some info from scrimmage today. Will be interesting to see if there is any difference in the amount of info leaked with DeBoer here.

As observers sitting on a hill away from the action, we can only guess at how these young players will perform. A few years ago, I was watching a Bama game when a true freshman caught a ball for what would have been a 1st down. But he looped to try to get away from the defender and was tackled short of the yard marker. I felt sure we would not see that player again in the game. To my surprise, the freshman made another catch a short time later. It seems that the coaches had seen something in Amari Cooper that I had missed from where I was sitting.
Williams has the speed and good hands, but also has great foot work. He is an intelligent and hard working young man. He had very good coaches in high school and played against some very good teams. Of course, there is a learning curve as a true freshmen, but he isn't your typical player even at his young age.
I didn’t see where this had been posted. Evidently Jalen Hale suffered an injury and they are awaiting imaging results to determine the extent. It is significant enough that Rodney Orr said at the very least he is done for the spring.
edit: notice it was already posted several pages back. I overlooked it. Apologies.

I think its at 4 Central. So hasn't happened yet unless I'm wrong about the time. Although I now just saw someone say it will be around 3:15 central so idk.
Don't you have any binoculars so that you can give us some info from the scrimmage...?
I just know it's over. UAPD just finished the team escort back to Mal Moore.

I heard CKD said none of the quarterbacks had a turnover. I hope that's a good sign.
CKD did say the pass rush gave the offense problems so there's that. I think the tackles need more work.
Yeah, that was a problem last year. I don't expect that to be fixed in a few spring practices.
