I don't look for him to return. Besides, they're really high on Basil Mitchell, who did everything well when called upon in 1999. The three best DTs on the UFA market are Sam Adams, Gilbert Brown and Carolina's Tim Morabito. They'll gladly take Adams, a classic underachiever, if agent Angelo Wright lowers the asking price. Brown will be in the Duke University fat farm soon.
Players always talk up a new staff at the first minicamp.
I remember Forrest Gregg's first minicamp. On the grass in March 1984. A bloody affair, with coaches screaming for hitting. Afterward, they were singing the praises of how much tougher the club would be under Gregg after nine years of Bart Starr. I think it will be a little less stressful.
