His press conference isn't until tomorrow, and I won't be here for it. Not sure who will be here to hear him say whatever he has to say.

Doesn't Elko run this state? 🙄 Isnt' this where he first stated that? Is he there, or did I miss it? 🤘

Houston HC Willie Fritz says there is no doubt about having the conversation with kids about NIL. Says it feels like everything has been sped up in comparison to previous years. "Money is talked about."

He's in the zone where others need supplemental oxygen The waiting may be the hardest part! Age wise, hopefully he gets it done in that window. Tom Kite won the US Open at Pebble at age 42 though!

Houston coach Willie Fritz is meeting with reporters at the convention right now. Sark is next in about 20 minutes.

That's crazy dominance.... 🤘

I’ll say that in this setting, Scott doesn’t have the same kind of juice as Tashard Choice, but what Choice brings to the table is hard to replicate. Scott could wind up being a better teacher at the position than Choice, and I say that based on observing both coaches in a similar setting.

No dancing or early cutting if you play running back for Chad Scott. ”You must have a vertical mentality,” he said more than once during his lecture.

One point of emphasis from Orphey I am a big fan of is how often he throws footballs to his DBs. Orphey said earlier in the lecture that he doesn’t believe cornerbacks catch enough footballs during practice. Added along the lines of, how do you expect interceptions when you don’t practice catching? On all footwork and agility drills, there is a ball thrown to his cornerbacks.

A couple of practice clips shown as examples of techniques by Texas cornerbacks. Kobe Black made a great play, and received praise for his violence at the point of attack, on a stop route from Aaron Butler for a PBU. Kade Phillips, Jaylon Guilbeau, Manny Muhammad and Warren Roberson have all been used as examples as well.

During Chad Scott’s talk on running backs, there were some good James Simon clips from spring practice. A lot of Simon and Tre Wisner on the clinic tape.

Heavy emphasis on running WR blockers on the outside vertical back to the LOS from the cornerback position. A long technical talk on engaging on blocks. Says violence is the key on the outside and it is worked everyday at practice.

Footwork and pedaling accounts for Agilities — “speed doesn’t help you at corner, technique helps you at corner,” says Orphey.

Orphey says he is huge on having his guys take notes during film. Says everything is detailed, from the date on the top of the page to specifics about coverages, schemes, personnel.

Yeah, no

There was a lengthy comment about coverage sacks being a stat for his DBs. Keeping track of guys doing their job even when the box score doesn’t show up.
