to me that is a good thing.i also liked his comments a while ago re staying at home rather than a week at ft drum.

Oh I agree on the Ft. Drum thing I just think an hour with the media is pretty damn short is all.

Q & A seems short, but whatever and while im not bemoaning it, if you are going to go to Ft Drum, why just a day??

either cancel altogether or maybe do 2 nights 3 days or something?

Remember there will be interviews with Coach Babers and select players after some of the practices.

I don't recall them ever being at Drum for an entire week. More like 3-4 days.

Pretty sure Marrone's First Ft Drum Camp was a week or close to it...

You are right. Marrone was a longer visit. Shafers' visits to Drum were shorter.

Nothing significant from Babers thus far. Just said no players will be kept out for non-medical reasons tomorrow.

Babers said he went to Denny's for a 55th birthday special (whatever that is. Had fans come up and take photos with him.

Babers: Syracuse DB signees James Pierre and Michael Moore are still waiting on clearance from the NCAA.

Colorado graduate transfer DE De'Jon Wilson is here and ready to go.

Babers said his team looks noticeably bigger than they did in the spring.

Babers said the team will hit as needed during camp. That goes down to individual players.

Zaire Franklin said Sam spot is "wide open" in a sense, but Jonathan Thomas and Ted Taylor are best positioned.

Franklin singled out Andrew Armstrong as an impressive freshman LB. Moves well in space.

Zaire Franklin said QB Eric Dungey and DB Kielan Whitner have been putting in extra time in the weight room. ED noticeably bigger.
