Questions:

1. Will the fact that this is Easter weekend hurt our spring game visits from out of state players?
2. When do the rosters come out?
3. I'm guessing they will, but will the suspended players be playing in the game?

I haven't seen any recruit lists yet, but with Easter being later, you just have to assume a lot of recruits will be staying home. I'd say we will have a lot more in-state kids at the game.

Rosters will be offense vs. defense.

I took this from a Tim May article. Hopefully it helps
What fans also aren't used to seeing is the scoring method. All scoring plays (touchdowns, field goals, extra points, two-point tries) carry their usual value. But to balance the competition, the offense gets one point for each first down and the defense usually is rewarded two points every time it stops the offense without a score, and various other points for big plays.

For example, after John Simon stripped the ball from quarterback Kenny Guiton and then pounced on the fumble in a scrimmage last Saturday, the defense was awarded two points for stopping a possession, two points for a sack and three points for a turnover.

Dom Tiberi: "Boom will be playing on Sundays"

Huh? Maybe the practice squad. He is a smallish RB will marginal next level speed/quickness

Not really, they are banged up.

I kind of like this Graham kid.

i know its early, but I've liked Graham the best so far. Like Braxton's mobility a lot though.

I'd agree to that. Miller has the mobility, but that last throw was pretty bad.

I usually don't watch the spring game, but considering the start of next year, I figured I'd get a look at the QBs and RBs.
