purpose of spring ball. Anyone basing expectations on spring ball really needs to brush up. It's not a confirmation of anything. It's the spring game. It's neither 100% offense nor defense. Frankly I'm shocked we see this every year on CB.

But even if you do choose to base it on that, I'm looking for more of an explanation. What specifically did you see that was upsetting? Now, it may be irrelevant because of what I just said above, but I'd still like to hear what exactly you saw that "confirmed" it to you.

I really think a lot of people need to start off by listening to a bunch of interviews. Get caught up on what this offense is. What the offense was and why it was that way... Then how it is different this year. How things are different due to experience. How the purpose of spring camp changes from year 1 to year 2. How personnel makes things different. How things are different for coaches. Etc etc.

I take it you've never watched the spring game for basically any other team either, based on what you said. Or listened to what other coaches around the country have to say about spring ball. I would kindly suggest starting there. Coaches don't base any sort of expectations on spring ball. I don't know why fans would.

We don't have the ability to do what exactly?
