Why is nobody talking about what a late Sunday spring game actually does for a program's development? We have Oregon State heading down to Houston for a night kick in April and I honestly think this is. Getting these guys on a plane, going through a full road routine. That builds muscle memory that pays off in September when we walk into a hostile environment for real. The narrative about the portal being the only way to rebuild is getting ridiculous. Colorado brings in 43 transfers and everyone loses their minds. Oklahoma State brings in 50 under Eric Morris and people call it innovative. Meanwhile we have been quietly developing talent through our system year after year and just watching guys like Brazzell get. That is not an accident. That is a philosophy. What I love about this Houston trip is that it forces our young offensive line to communicate on the road. We have been working all spring on the interior rotation and hearing that the coaches are letting multiple guys compete. Not just the best five athletes but the five who can handle a silent count in a loud stadium. The new transfer window rules starting next year are going to make this type of spring evaluation even more critical. If you cannot identify your rotation guys after spring ball you are going to be scrambling in December with everyone else. We are ahead of the curve on this one. The team page has our schedule up now and you can see the vision taking shape.
