It as of right now. Wilcox did mention they have some other guys they are looking at for the position or can line up in that spot. I’d assume there’ll be some attrition at some positions due to talent and we’ll see some guys hop over.
Heavy packages? Double-move timing routes? Fullback?

Also: "Star"
It is my understanding that the term means hybrid Safety/LB, essentially a safety who can move up post-setup for inside support. Also, didn't DeRuyter use the term "coin", which was essentially a hybrid safety/nickel position - mainly due to available personnel (ie, Traveon Beck) and a counter to pass-happy offenses? But with CBs being veterans, perhaps the emphasis is less on rotating/disguising CB looks, but in rotating/disguising safety looks to create havoc in a less experienced part of the roster. I suspect Sirmon will call for consistent cover-2 pre-snap looks and then pushing forward safeties. Or at least have the flexibility to do cover 1 with the same personnel.
Other than adding a FB, players have said the actual formation stuff theyve been doing ISNT much different than what they were already doing...just new language is the biggest difference so far
Unfortunately it was quick fire passes so I didn’t have it in my notes. The tip drill one I’m not as worried since it came off the receivers hands. The other one tho just didn’t see his target. I’m trying to run through my memory and I think the second one was from Jaden Casey. The first one was either Chase or Spencer.
A very good defense (with some vet players) vs an offense learning NFL verbiage means theres going to be a lot of days where guys throw/run to the wrong spots and it leads to TO's. Thats ignoring just having good players make plays for the D, I wouldnt worry about any of it, even if Chase throws 5 ints in one practice.
Is anyone other than Angelillo getting reps at the FB position? Its seems as though they should prepare in case he gets injured.

I don't know why, but seeing the structure of these practices feels encouraging to me. I like how systematic they are

"Heavy packages? Double-move timing routes? Fullback?" they're all headfakes so UNLV won't expect when we come out in empty set on Labor Day weekend!

Report on goal line pass plays is encouraging. We've been missing red zone TDs since Kenny Lawler.
Does anyone know who the QBs were for the 2 interceptions?

No worries. Thanks, Rob!
