Many fans do not follow Spring ball because they think it means very little and that may very well be. I view it differently with the opinion that there are many revealing factors. Here are some.
Hall has made his life a bit easier by adding coaches Bignell and Long. Both are bringing a change in schemes. Bignell is inserting an aggressive defense style instead of the wait-and-see used last year. It is a fly to the ball with all hands on deck, and he has the players to accomplish that. He has revised how defensive plays are called to keep pace with hurry-up offenses. An issue that was a big problem last year.
Long is aware of the failure to score TDs inside the 20-yard line and has implemented plays with a lot of shifts, motion, and tempo to confuse the defense, especially in the red zone. He has moved some players around to take full advantage of their special skills. He has brought a lot of intensity to the offense and is a stickler for precise execution. He will not tolerate poor execution or simply missed assignments.
I will investigate the player personnel tomorrow and see what will be different in the upcoming season. Soon, I will give my Spring prediction for next year.
