Explains why we took a third safety in the portal (the kid from SIU).

Because Bailey is a good player and I'd like to see him 100% all season long.
He’s dinged up. Nothing serious
Remember when McCray was only out for a few weeks for an entire season? I get that you have insider info, but until I see players on the field in a game, any injury is a serious injury. No reason to act like it’s crazy to be concerned.
Bret is so damn... endearing? I don't know, but it is infectious. Every time he does one of these clips I get the urge to sign up for season tickets (despite the logistical impracticalities). And ending every one of them with the quick I-L-L
In some other universe he is Don Draper.
We're less than a month out to the first game and I'm ready.

yeah, he's an excellent coach with excellent communication skills and a pretty good dose of charisma. we're very fortunate to have him. if anybody can do it (lift us out of our hole), he can. I'm a true believer. great job, Josh.
He was made to be a college coach.Bret is so damn... endearing? I don't know, but it is infectious. Every time he does one of these clips I get the urge to sign up for season tickets (despite the logistical impracticalities). And ending every one of them with the quick I-L-L

And we got him.
Bailey missed spring ball due to injury/ surgery. And he still appears to be out. Not sure if he was working out/ practicing , or to what capacity. We just don’t know, like other poster said.

McCray last year was one of the most difficult to understand football health situations I've ever seen.

lol. I inserted that deliberately to create just such confusion.
I have one kid in college. I will consult her on whether she is familiar with "dripped out". If not, harsh punishment shall ensue for hipness deficiency.
Is drip like the new “swag” term?
I’m 36 but my kids aren’t old enough to know the lingo and for me to embarrass them by using it.
(Which I will do relentlessly)

I worry more about BB's height. I hope he doesn't get shorter with age. I've sent Calcium supplements (for a strong spine) to him at the athletic offices, although I'm not sure if he is taking them.
You shouldn't. He's an adult capable of making his own choices.
Except that we have a vested interest in his longevity as our football coach.
