August 14, 2010

Day One in the Books

August 10, 2010

  So day one is in the books and we’ve got a couple of answers, at least in the short term.  Leon Kinnard was lined up at WR.  I like it.  I’m picturing step back WR screens so Leon can catch the ball in space and make people miss.  Kid is an electrifying athlete.   I [...]

Preseason Big East Media Rankings : Instant Reaction

August 3, 2010

1. Pittsburgh – Probably deservedly so.  A little bit of question mark at QB with Tino Sunseri having very little experience, but the Panthers are deep and talented.  Wanny can still pull some head-scratching moves on gameday, though… 2. WVU/Cincy tie – I’ll start with West Virginia.  I think this is the right spot for [...]
