11:15 to 11:30 - Manny on with Packer & Durham

FSU taking 2 QB's hoping the other kid doesn't transfer when Milton named starter.
 
my favorite Canes ACC Day was when Orlando Alzugaray was axing Al Golden why the previous year his linebackers were 3 yards deep in the endzone when GT had the ball on the one yard line. Golden kept asking Alzugaray whether he knew the play call and Alzaugaray kept repeating it didn't matter since the linebackers were 3 yards deep anyways. Good times.

Hopefully nobody refers to any of the coaches by their first name.

There’s a lot of ways to look at this, but the reporter is the supplicant. My opinion will probably not be a popular one, so people can criticize Deon if they want, but the reporter should’ve backed the fūck up and said “ok Mr. or Coach Sanders”

Instead, he acted like an aggressive little bltch when, in fact, the reporter was the lower status person in the exchange. The lower status person should always concede in that situation, and accede to the social norms of addressing him by his preferred title.

That was bullshlt and disrespectful. Hate to go here, possibly even perceived as racist. I can’t say what’s in that reporter’s heart, but at the very least he’s an asshòle.

Bubba and Harley on Joe Rose: Said the older guys - Harley, King and Bubba - got together and discussed coming back. They felt that Manny had a good thing set up with the team and they saw nothing but upside to coming back and working hard and leading the team to a great season. Bubba reminded Joe Rose that last season was the first season he played a full season as the starting Safety. Bubba said they knew last season that they had a good team and that by replacing the couple of guys they lost , they could come back and have the potential for a great season. Both Bubba and Harley noted there is a lot of competition behind them from the younger guys...

Bubba and Harley said they are not focusing on Bama right now; they are focusing on the team and getting things right in work habits and doing all the little things right. Focusing on themselves. They will start to focus on Bama when camp starts.

Bubba also said that Manny taking on the DC duties was big for the team. They see their HC is also their DC and totally invested in the team...

Bolden's goal is to become a first round NFL Draft pick and he thinks he can get there after a big fall.

"I'm never satisfied being in second place, third place. I want to be a first-round guy and I felt like coming back was the only way I can do that and accomplishing my goals. I had plenty of talks with [Manny Diaz], my family and we just felt like it was best for me to come back and I did it. I took advantage of this and I'm getting my body right, my mind right and I'm ready to go. A couple of weeks until fall camp," Bolden said.

God bless Richt. But I believe his media days are behind him given the current state.

Did you catch the beginning of the show? Richt talked about how he knew he likely had the condition, the doctor's official diagnosis at the end of May just confirmed it. He mentioned that once you actually know you have this disease, the likelihood is you probably had it for many years prior. He said he is in stage 1 and can pretty much do anything he wants, although some things may be slower...

I think both were wrong. Plenty of reporters have called Saban "Nick", so Deion was probably just being a bit sensitive.

Likewise, the reporter continued to refer to him as Deion trying to provoke drama. That's what the media is now, more TMZ than trying to actually get an answer.

Meanwhile, not a single ACC coach cares what they're called and will give vanilla answers to boilerplate questions.
