2023 Fall Camp Thread

That trash ass football player? He was only listed at 205 as a Will Backer...fuggin PATHETIC. He was never any good, right?

I want my Rover to be able to move down to Nose in a moments notice and run stunts against B1G guards.
Lol

@Ducksker (aka Kitty) is very talented at saying stupid shit but I'd be a little concerned if Fields was starting as a true frosh. It was really just misinterpreting the tweet thinking he was starting.

I like my rovers from Oklahoma with no Tulsa, OU or OSU offers. Good thing we beat out Abilene Christian for this program changing stud.

I’m sure Rhule was the only coach to watch film on him or watch him live, all hail the messiah!

Why is there concern he is working out there? I understood concern if you thought he was starting.
I did think he was seeing time with the 1’s. I’ve heard he’s a pencil stick. Just hope Dvoracek knows what a Big Ten linebacker looks like

Considering Dvoracek is like 27 with his first fulltime assistant coach job cutting his teeth at a job like Nebraska i think it’s a valid concern.

Maybe that's why he's starting out at rover instead of linebacker. Maybe he will grow into linebacker.

I can't say it wasnt with the 1s but all the post said was working out at the position.

Gifford played quite a bit his RS Frosh year. Probably our best tackler last year. He's 6'1" 205. Stenger is currently listed as #3 at 6'2" 190.

Fields at Rover makes more sense to me than WLB. He's got time to add weight and I don't think it's critical. 10-15 lbs would be plenty. 25-30 lbs and he can move back to LB.
 
Here's the actual quotes about Fields in case anyone was wondering.

>> White said true freshman Eric Fields is playing "everywhere" but "right now, he's at the Rover and he's doing a good job."

"Moving guys around. You have some of the old guys around, Omar (Brown), Corey (Collier), Malcolm, Tommi, Q, Giff is doing a good job," White said. "Now you're starting to see those other guys, Eric Fields show up a little bit, Dwight Bootle showing up. We're trying to move guys around and see them. They're getting a lot of reps and we're throwing a lot at them to see what they can absorb."

Well, I don't think it's too early to call the Rhule regime a failed experiment. Pack it in boys.
