Captain Kangaroo 2,160 Report post Posted August 23, 2016 Granted you can skip through it...but the 1:20 minute intro for a 2:20 minute video is a bit excessive. Nice to put a voice and personality to the players. Otherwise you'd only know their name and number. Since Akron has no TV coverage, it's really the only chance to hear most of the guys. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zipsoutsider 778 Report post Posted August 23, 2016 I am hoping the video guys cut down the intro. Once you've seen it once, it gets old. It would have been nice to ask a random question, too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kreed5120 1,602 Report post Posted August 24, 2016 Hasn't Bowden came out saying this year the O-line is more athletic? If they have gotten larger and quicker those are both signs. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blue & Gold 1,939 Report post Posted August 24, 2016 This is a pretty great clip. Bowden brings in an ice cream truck for after practice. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4Rwsj6Sh3c 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UA1987 143 Report post Posted August 25, 2016 (edited) Looking for the next clip on the interior DL. The two deep here is extremely important. I'm interested if Hamilton is making an impact and at which position. Edited August 25, 2016 by UA1987 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm interested if Hamilton is making an impact and at which position. I'm curious about that as well. Either way I think we have more DL depth than we had last year. Not necessarily more talent without Coe and Grice, but we should be deeper. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Big Zip 13 Report post Posted August 29, 2016 Would really like to see these in a five question format. The information they share when they talk would be great in a graphic but then ask them five questions to help really get to know them. Nothing serious just fun stuff like they do with the Little League World Series. Like.... 1. Who is your favorite football player. 2. Favorite movie? 3. Favorite food? 4. Some place you'd like to visit? 5. Favorite coach on the staff. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
