Like CH posted, "there is a rumor spring practice has started" :lol: :lol: do we still have a football team? who has gained weight and muscle? how do the qbs look? have the injured recovered 100% since December? yada yada. yada :P :oops: :x

Maybe Tres can even get an interview, though not anywhere near the fields- probably in the parking lot!

Will CR mention that more press might be beneficial in selling tickets for next season or raise interest in our funding campaign?

silence of the lambs- Henjohn, I bet you're really steaming. I don't mean to piss you off, but it must be tough being so close and yet so far away!

just saw you are on line right now
Keep the faith kick butt go Hens

I'd love to be going to Practices like I used to Tenn but I'm not losing any sleep over it. Hopefully Kevin T can get some access soon

Thanks for the link, Caldwell Chicken. A practice sighting! Woot!
Tubby: 3 national titles, one won on the field, all D2
Keeler: 3 national titles, all won on the field, one as a player, two as a coach, 1 D2, 2 FCS
Carty: 2 on-field national titles, one as a player, one as an OC, both FCS

Carty - get an FBS bowl win!

Some obviously don't care about the limited restricted coverage but some of us do. Speak directly with the reporters and they'll tell you. Kevin Tresolini was just named to the Delaware Sports Hall of Fame but can barely get into a practice. Even when they can, they're often asked to leave. Now, next topic

Yep HJ.

Maybe some prefer “wake me” topics? :-) If we get another one, maybe we get another opposite and great result!

I find this treatment of KT irritating as _____

Can’t imagine how he feels after covering the Hens for several decades and probably leaned over backwards to be more than fair and nice. Has Carty or whomever makes these decisions considered how KTs typewriter might respond in kind?
recruiting recruiting recruiting...It ain't rocket science....We need better more athletic players...That simple....

I was told by Tres that reporters were allowed in to practice for the first 45 minutes and then had to leave. I actually witnessed this at a practice where I was give permission to attend last Spring.

I’m with HenJohn on this one. I don’t care about myself only the media.

We’ll let TennHen give us his evaluations based on the limited social media reports😂

I’m showing up at practice today with an ID card that says, “PULL.”

I will let everyone know how that goes.
Tubby: 3 national titles, one won on the field, all D2
Keeler: 3 national titles, all won on the field, one as a player, two as a coach, 1 D2, 2 FCS
Carty: 2 on-field national titles, one as a player, one as an OC, both FCS

Carty - get an FBS bowl win!

Yes! Expected response.
1. It certainly was not a compliment and,
2. I’m not your “pal”. Though you meant this in derogatory manner.
If you don’t like my comments, please put me on ignore.
