I enjoyed watching the football practice portion and the drills
they did. I watched the inside line backers the most. I was the
most impressed with Matt Bauman and Doman in terms of having good
feet. Dan Van Sweden also looked to have pretty good feet.
I also watched the outside linebackers, Vic So’oto looked
really strong. He had all his reps on the first team on the 11 on
11’s. I also thought Grant Nelson looked really good. He had
nice feet and good closing speed.
The other thing that stood out to me was Jason Munn’s size.
He towered above everybody.
J.J. Duligi-
He is this year’s Brenden Gaskins. He definitely was the one
everyone was talking about at the scrimmage. He is not going to be
the “change of pace” and get to the edges back that we
all hoped he would, but looks to have a very promising career. He
is a very elusive runner and very mature (i.e. patience, vision
etc.) for a young runner. It will be interesting to see what
happens with him with PT, because as was mentioned Fui is looking
better. I was impressed when he caught the ball and made the would
be tackler, who had great position, completely whiff and took the
ball another 15 yards.
Spencer Hofoka-
He showed great speed and made one really impressive catch. I
wouldn’t be surprised to see him as the first guy in after
Reed and Collie. He was another one that stood out to the other
fans.
