Team off until return June 1. From there, Basically train/condition with trainers M-F until camp starts August 5. Nothing to do now except hope for no problems, mishaps or injuries. Our attention can be focused solely on the comings and going’s of one Kit Hughes. Ha

This feels like it can be the unofficial offseason thread to get us to fall camp.

Quintin Morris goes undrafted, but he quickly signs with the Buffalo Bills as a free agent. Happy for Q - hoping he’s successful and makes the roster.

Good: More national exposure playing a national TV game with less games to compete with on a Thursday than a Saturday.

Bad: We already play so many damn weeknight games.

It's also going to end up directly competing against Ohio State-Minnesota that night... so that's a yikes. I hate when BG plays at the same time as the Buckeyes, because nobody pays attention to our game.

Also Bad: I was planning on going to this game because my in-laws are in Knoxville and have tickets, but I don't think I can make it during the week.

Also bad: This is a very tough game for us at this point in the rebuild. The 2015 trip down there probably made for better television than this one will.

(I hope for the best, of course. Maybe this team will surprise all of us.)
