Anyone watching?

Anyone watching?

No, Comcast does not have the ACC channel and YouTube TV does not have NESN.
Really a shame no fans as this is the nicest day we have had for the Spring Game in well over 10 years.

I found it on Youtube, if anyone's interested:

Taji Johnson doesn't look like our 7th best receiver. But if he is, wow, things have changed in Chestnut Hill.

[durkcal]

Vrabel has done all the snaps at LT i believe. Petrula seems to be swapping back and forth RG/RT. Conley getting looks at RT with the Jurkovec 1's.

X Coleman looks like he is going to get some run at RB this Fall.

Gordinier seems to be playing with both offenses.

[HJS]

Offensively, this is our best team since Marty Ice.

Don’t have a read on the D.

Think Specials are good enough that they won’t lose games.

ACCN did a real nice job for the Spring Game.

First possession it was (left to right) Vrabel - Johnson - Lindstrom - Mahogany - Petrula.
As I said before, I like that they are tinkering but I think Petrula is better at OG than OT.

Eff you... it’s 11-1 season!

Sounds like Zion Johnson is definitely moving back to G.

Feel like we need to actually win 10 games first before we develop bigger expectations.

[Oliver Closeoff]

LBs can cover RBs and TEs now. This was a huge problem for Daz that peaked in the K state game.

WRs look deep, something unheard of at BC.

Defensive backfield seems stacked.

Grosel looks like a solid #2 QB, not many teams have that.

If the DL can improve, this will be a solid defense.

Probably the most talent since the Matty Ice days.

I'll give Daz credit for having enough usable players to allow Haf to develop them into something that could be special.

Daz can lift a program out of the dumpster but if you want more than a game over .500 then he's not your guy.

[HJS]

Agreed that Daz should get credit for developing the programs from Spaz depths to a point that his roster could set the stage for a good coach.

I really like how Hafley’s recruits have looked. The deal is that this staff ain’t staying here for long. They are riding out BC thinking they have themselves a ticket (in Hafley) to the NFL. Best case scenario is that Hafley returns for 2022-23 season. But, with this seasoned talent and joke of a schedule... I ain’t holding my breath. Enjoy it while it lasts, because it could be over in December. That said, if they come back for Year 3, the roster will be incredible for the next coach.

The fact Rahim turned down a P5 DC to stay here and be a position coach makes me think they are not eager to jump and will jump only for a big opportunity.

As for Hafley, I think there’s a chance we could have found our Dabo. I just hope Kraft and Leahy/BOT continue to pay him and provide him with the resources he needs. I personally think that will be the only thing that would cause him to jump. I’m not saying BC isn’t a steppingstone job, I’m saying we may have stumbled on a person who wants to be here and will stay as long as BC doesn’t fuck it up.

Hafley said it’s the most improved group in the spring and it absolutely needs to be for us to have a good defense.

Don't talk yourself into this.

I'd just like to see coach Half-n-Hafley, 6-6 record, "6 of one, a Haf-dozen of the other" achieve a winning record in a season. And coach a crisper game!

[eepstein0]

Hafley’s gone when he gets a NFL or big time offer (see Day at Ohio St) and that’s a good thing because it means he was great here. Have to go find the next Hafley.

I thought it was hard to make much of anything of that Spring Game. Was hoping Morehead would look good but he looked pretty lost as I’d expect.
