Posted August 13, 2008 at 2:51 pmBelieve it or not, we’re halfway through training camp. Here’s what has stood out during the first 10 days:
–Nothing has been decided at quarterback, although Nate Longshore probably has a slight edge at this moment. Longshore has completed more passes and made fewer mistakes during 11-on-11 drills so far. That being said, Kevin Riley is [...]

Posted August 7, 2008 at 3:33 pmTHE SYSTEM -Bob Gregory’s defenses play a style that in many ways mirrors the offensive system Jeff Tedford has in place. As on offense, it starts with the running game. Gregory wants to take away the opponent’s ability to run the ball and to do so is …

Posted July 5, 2008 at 8:26 pmWe had a question lately about our receivers, since we return all of 10 catches for 153 yards (thanks to LayReylle Cunningham, who provides all of those numbers. Yes, he is the only wide receiver on the roster with a catch in a game.). We figured that other people might be curious about our actual players in the midst of a month’s coverage on DumpyMuffs …

Posted April 21, 2008 at 9:28 pmThe Bears began the final week of the spring with a pretty lively practice at a frigid Memorial Stadium on Monday night. As has been the case for most of the spring, the defense has outplayed the offense.
As the Bears do often at practice, they practice the two-minute drill near the beginning. The first two [...]

Posted April 21, 2008 at 4:14 pmThe last Spring Practice is this Saturday. I’ll be heading down watch and do a couple interviews. The point of this post is to ask for nominations for who to interview. It should be one of the players who has not yet been interviewed by Rivals/BearTerritory.net. Those players are:
Shane Vereen
Brock Mansion
Jeremy [...]

Posted April 18, 2008 at 9:47 pmFirst of all, thanks to all for all of your well-wishes. Now, back to business:
The Bears went a little shorter than usual Friday because they have a morning practice on Saturday. Most of their practice focused on fundamentals and going through plays, with only a brief session of 11-on-11 near the end of the session.
Some formerly injured players – linebackers Zack Follett [...]

Posted April 3, 2008 at 5:59 amThe second installment of spring practice was a lively one, as the defense hooted and hollered its way to a handful of takeaways during team drills.
Cal’s defense forced a few fumbles and picked off a few passes during crossover, when the offense goes head-to-head with the defense. In general, Nate Longshore had a better day [...]

Posted March 31, 2008 at 5:26 amThomas DeCoud was the heart of the secondary and arguably the heart of the defense, and his presence will be hard to replace next season. The likely best scenario to do so is to break up the competition at rover between Bernard Hicks and Marcus Ezeff and move Hicks to free safety. Hicks started the [...]
