Practice Notes for April 1st

Stinson is on the list for fullback behind Willie Rose (the starter) and Alfred Morris (backup to Rose).
What "list" indicates he is now a FB and where he stands on the depth chart? Where can we find a copy?
Stinson has got the muscle of FB (228 lbs.), but think he is kind of short for the position (5'9"). He was recruited as a 3-star RB, so it's just a little weird that they would move someone of his caliber to a different position.

Exactly.
Stinson is on the list for fullback behind Willie Rose (the starter) and Alfred Morris (backup to Rose). So Stinson is third on the list. He wouldn't be ahead of Muniz.
At RB, where Blanchard was, you go from Blanchard to Floyd/Rolle and then… I guess Barasch?
I'm not entirely sure who was converted to FB from RB. For instance, last year's roster has Stinson at RB but I believe he's at FB now.
On a different note, I forgot to mention that Mr. Amos Wood is finally starting to shine. He's been pulling in a lot of great catches. May compete with Lestar Jean for a spot although FAU favors people with game experience and Jean has made some TD catches in games last season.
Ahhh that explains why hes not being mentioned as RB, hes been moved to FB. Thanks that helps a lot
.
And good to hear about woods as well. Seems like the new recruits are doing well

there is no third string list…you just look at where he practices…he runs with the second team…thats indicative of where he is on the depth chart…
But in all seriousness, the guy will get his snaps…he is a LOAD to bring down…he will surely get some snaps in short yarrdage and goal line situationals; at bare minimum…

Thanks for all the updates. Considering I'm all the way in Duval County I am unable to attend practices and these updates are very informative. Thanks to all who continue to post. How is the defensive line looking? Who have been the most impressive thus far on the D-line? What are the opinions on who will or should be starting on the D-line?
How is the D-line looking? Young and small, especially against our more experienced offense.
Josh Savidge was called out in drills to show the other guys how to get an effective pass rush.
Dino Cox, Kevin Cyrille and Jimmy Jean are doing well. Haven't seen much of Daniel Joseph but I think he's limited for the Spring.

I know they are young, but I like the way the New DL coach seems to be working them. Hopefully they bulk up a bit over the summer weight traiing.
God, I miss a pass rush. We havent had a very effective one in like 2 years.

What are you basing that on? I know you have been to the practices so I am wondering is it the feel of intensity this year at practice or do we actually look like we have more talent, etc.
Thanks for the coverage this year…awesome job!!

No can can predict the future…and you have to state "opinion" up front on this type of stuff…but, IMO it is three things really:
1. Rod Payne
2. Intensity (havent had it since Pinnick left)
3. Better pool to draw from that is maturing
• Givens
• Johnson
• Cyrille
