Thanks again HBK, you do a great job.
Just saw a short interview with Deontre Thomas. Forgot about that dude, would think he will be part of the mix in terms of Dline play.
Seth Malcom from Tabor, IA attended practice today with his parents and younger brother. Left with an offer at LB. has an offer from ISU and has visited Iowa. Has Northwestern and KState interest early. Class of 2021 kid.
Plays 8 man football but you can just tell. Don’t know if this is the thread for this but there ya go.

I knew Boyd, my family knew Boyd, he was a helluva good guy back in the day. Would open up his office and let Boosters run around, while setting-up off season exhibitions with Tom Rathman literally breaking the chains on a sled back from SF while Keith Jones ran a 4.3 electronic.
He has my respect.
While I do think the work ethic seems to be higher than in years past, this is something we said early on with Pilini as well. Don’t recall if people were saying this with Riley but it’s not the first time I’ve heard it..
It wouldn't be spring ball without the team being stronger, faster and more dedicated than ever before. That's the party line every year. What is different this spring is I believe it and a lot of guys on the team pass the eye test.
Key part there is “early on” the last few years under Pelini were about as bad as Riley. There was no physical development for the majority of the team, with the exception of the guys that actually cared and they were few and far between.
It was very disheartening to see players coming in and looking almost no different their senior year, as they did their freshman year.
The eye test on OL is different for sure. Looking at those guys in 2017 on TV you'd see their arms and be like, "I'm sorry, THAT is a D-1 offensive lineman who is on scholarship to lift weights and shove 300 lb dudes around? Because no, I don't think it is..."
