DL Mc daniels stood out. He is more disruptive. The OL allowed some sacks/ touches. The California kid looked like Mahomes a little. ( extending the play). Was very nice. Hooker needs more time. He ran a bit too much to early imo. Some of the plays were creative.. ncataggies.com/news/2022/4/2/football-aggies-get-running-game-going-at-spring-game.aspx"I thought the pass rush was good, and the pass defense was outstanding," said Washington. "They didn't mess with them boys out there today. We've got some guys back there that can play." N.C. A&T's pass rush produced 12 sacks, with graduate defensive end Jermaine McDaniel and sophomore linebacker Malich Jacobs earning two apiece. Ten different Aggies recorded sacks on Saturday.

McDaniel coming back healthy is huge. He has a chance to be an FCS All-American similar to Bam.

For those concerned about our spring game vs. Grambling's, with all the peripheral pomp and circumstance, I'm MUCH more concerned about what we do/did on the football field than any "other" things...cheerleaders, band, etc. Hear what Scottay says: www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwDXW_JaTHo#TheMainThing

The only time we attended anything was Aggie Fest right before the season kicked off. We are A&T…Not The Swack

The kicker offs were ok. Seems like he was trying to hit the coffin corners. A pooch kick was effective too.

Was it just me, or did I see the Tight End get some targets?
Finally I saw a few passes over the middle.
If we are going to be a team that enjoys a 3rd and 3 type of offensive challenges, then we should keep the ball all quarter ( like at Duke)

There is no law against having a great football product for the diehard football fanatic as well as an awesome atmosphere for the casual Aggie football fan looking for a reason to consume our product. I mean ultimately for GameDay we are trying to put buts in seats to help grow Aggie Football. If our target audience was for families of players and BlueDeathValley then Saturdays spring game checked all the boxes, parents got to see their kids play, and we got a glimpse at what the fall has in store. But guess what, these 2 groups are already consumers of Aggie football. If we are trying to put more buts in seats going forward (which would provide a nice Segway to joining the $18.91 club) then we have a lot of opportunity to make some improvements to our product. Maybe this can be a line item in budget for next spring to cover expenses of what would equate to GHOE like (cheerleaders, band (even if it's condensed), score board, promotions (raffle off 2 season tickets for upcoming campaign). If we want the community outside of campus to embrace us we actually need to engage with it.

There should have been separate activations that included AAF, season ticketholders, students and sponsors. As mentioned, one involving the $18.91 initiative was a huge loss.

Well, there was representation of the $18.91 there, thanks to durhamgsoaggie.
He had a small table as you entered the stadium, but yes so much more can be done to promote this awesome initiative.

They announced the Coaches, but I didn’t recognize a few of the names. Did anyone get them? And their positions?

These are the two minute videos we needed to see throughout camp. Didn't have to be after every practice, but once a week would've went a long way.
