WEEK 0 - TRAINING CAMP in ORLANDO - Part II

Head Coach Jim Criner with this year's Offensive Line. Barry Stokes (#67) returns for his second season.

New DL coach Jim Tomsula joins the Claymores for his first season. He did a wonderful job with the Monarchs DL last year. Hopefully we'll see an improvement this year. Jim Hoffman (#97) looked good in the practices I saw.

Special teams and national coach Mike Kenny works his new kickers. Kicking here is Robert Grant (#13), who is battling barefoot Rob Hart (#8) to be the national kicker.

Injured Emory Smith (#22) helps out with the running backs - here pitching the ball to Ben Snell (#33).


Japanese QB Haruhito Tsuji (#12) lets one fly, while ginger haired Mike McQueary and coach Criner look on.

During afternoon practice the Citrus Bowl stands start to block out the intense Florida sun, but it's still tiring work. Among the kneelers are back-up passers Ryan Clement (#19), Mike McQueary (#9) and converted WR Don Sellers (#4).

Dameyune Craig (#2) offers Haruhito Tsuji (#12) a hand after a hard day's practice.
