Of course, he is going to be judged ultimately by the wins and the losses. But it has been a long time since we've had a head coach here who really pushes the envelope and motivates his players. Mini Camp 2 is on the horizon. Ushering in the first opportunities for the rookie draft picks and free agents to show their stuff. Butch Davis has said repeatedly that he is excited to see the fight for the starting spots ensue.
Many jobs are apparently up for grabs.
I've read some good things about the two defensive backs we took in the middle rounds. I hope that Butch lights a fire in the secondary and lets the starters know that they will have to earn their keep, otherwise he has other guys that he's not afraid or reluctant to give their jobs to. In just four months the ball will be manipulated and coaxed into its tee. Then comes the roar of the crowd and the kamikaze special teams units crash into each other and it all starts over again. A new coach, a new defensive tackle, and a new offensive scheme will be put on display.
