That looks like a riot to me (fun riot, I mean)!Gotta love Sims' attitude, though:
Also, word is CNS is considering using a different practice method for the remainder of spring drills:
Amen brother...the weekend has just been awful
With Cam Sims going down it will be all the more important for depth.Averett is a track guy too so that would put more speed on the field at WR. Hopefully he has WR hands and not DB hands.
Uh do what?? I'm confusedFrom the media viewing period of today's practice...
@_KevinConnellStrange sighting at practice: Cooper Bateman was wearing a white jersey instead of the usual black for QBs and catching passes with WRs.
@mzenitz Geno Smith was not on the field during the portion of practice open to the media
I read elsewhere that last year he was the holder for placekicks--hello fake FG...however, sometimes I wonder if CNS does this just to 'mess with the press'...I just saw the video of Cooper taking reps. Very strange...but if it works...why not? I wouldn't mind some trick plays.
Spent allotted time around the secondary and quarterbacks and wide receivers today.
* What I have been told (and posted here at the time of his hiring) about new secondary coach Mel Tucker not lacking for energy and enthusiasm appears to be very much true. Works at a tempo that ensures a ton of reps during individual drills and demands excellence. Make a mistake and you'll be doing push ups; just ask Maurice Smith.
* Blake Barnett was ripping throws during individual drills. Looks very at ease out there and throws a better deep ball than I would have expected. All of the quarterbacks threw the ball well.
* Interesting to see Ronnie Harrison getting some reps with what looked to be the rest of the 1s in a sub package goal line look. Not surprising, though, given Geno Smith's absence. I'd say he's going to get repped up from here on out. Supposedly had a really good practice Saturday.
* UA president Judy Bonner's presence didn't go unnoticed. Draw into that what you'd like but I have little doubt it was PR related.
* Bateman looked pretty good at WR. Made a nice, back-of-the-ball, finger-tip grab in the back of the end zone on a little slugo route.
* Raheem Falkins took part in drills but didn't look to be moving all that great.
* Lane Kiffin is know as a laid back guy but he wasn't happy with the pace of the QB/WR work early in practice and let it be know. The hold-up? Bateman changing out of a black QB jersey to a white offensive jersey.
Saban: "it was a beautiful day to day. Happy to see us have some good weather for us to practice in."
What were you wanting to hear?Not a fan of what I just listened to
I hadn't heard that he was injured, and have been wondering over the last year + why we hadn't been hearing his name more often - other than, of course, his perhaps having had been buried in the non-existent depth chart...BOL practice thoughts

I hope Dr.Witt, Dr. Bonner, Bill Battle, Nick Saban, and all other administrators and coaches get the message:
We as caring alumni of The University DO NOT want to see our university become a reform school for people who have failed to abide the laws of society and 'rules' of acceptable behavior in their past.
I shall again be communicating that message to those who I named,among others.
