Excited about a different practice style

[kennyschiano]

Schiano coached practices one way and i would assume flood had the same style - as that was his only reference point. We know that crappy qb's looked amazing and we also know that backup qbs never got enough reps.

I hope Ash brings in a whole new framework that he learned from a master coach at ohio state. One that we know allows multiple QBs to get reps and be ready to play on gameday!

I really like what Harbaugh did at Michigan this last year in regards to practice.

We need to build up our scout team like Michigan.

There is not enough practice time for all the QBs. One of the best things I've seen is using virtual reality to take extra practice reps.

Backup QB's get few reps everywhere.

Need more contact and less pretend

Watching that preseason doc on OSU, their practices looked pretty challenging. A young coach with high expectations watching what we put on tape all season? Those kids better get ready to go to work.

I was not aware Flood was holding practices so this would be a welcome change.

I'm sure the practice was the same for Schiano and Flood on defense since we were getting the same results.

Speaking of virtual reality, I saw this a few days ago. The technology seems to be creeping in a little. I wonder how much it costs. There was a Carson Palmer piece about it on ESPN or Fox, also mentioned here, and he seemed to really like it too.

A quarter-century ago, the NCAA instituted the four-hour rule: no football-related activity could last longer than four hours a day. That includes meetings, conditioning, practicing, you name it.

"His idea was, why spend any of that in the meeting room? We need to get better on the football field," defensive coordinator D.J. Durkin said.

The scout team scrimmages. Video captures every rep of every player, from Rudock to the skinniest walk-on. All of them are ranked every week, No. 1 to No. 105. The scout-team players are competing for spots on the travel roster.
If you're a guy that maybe thought, 'Hey, I'm just a scout-team guy, no one is going to notice if I take a couple of reps off' -- there's no way to hide or slack off," Morgan said. "It will be exposed, that's for sure. ... It's not set in stone who is going on the trip every week. It's not just a guy that they expect to play next year. It's more like, who worked their butt off this week?"
