Whole host of coaches and player interviews available on Irish Illustrated, Subway Domer etc–check them out.

Basically the usual although Diaco sounds almost mystical talking defense–hope the players get it.

QB battle–don’t know what to make of Kelly’s comments saying battle is dead even. Hearing that you could conclude that Crist is static or maybe regressing while Rees is rapidly improving and runs the offense better.

I still think Crist starts but gets yanked when he starts throwing dirtballs. Can only conclude it’s all mental with him.

Rees on the other hand must have improved passing strength dramatically–say long crisp passes. He was so dreadful in the USC game–I’ve got to see it to believe it..

Greatly surprised that frosh tight end Ben Koyack is the biggest TE on the team at close to 260lbs. He plays alot this year.

Finally, feel real bad for Mike Ragone–another injury will limit his practice time. Barring all the injuries, he could have been outstanding.
