very comfortable in that chair. I think he was actually quite nervous, because he didn't move an inch. Either that or Rodriguez has him exhausted beyond all measure, which is probably true.
Question, by the way. Practice opened Monday, and you can't have pads the first two days. Is today's practice in pads?
August 11th, 2010 at 8:28 AM ^
I believe Friday is the first practice in pads.
August 11th, 2010 at 8:32 AM ^
I read somewhere, I think in the thread about WVU wearing vests and getting in trouble for it, that the first two days are helmets only, the next two are helmet and shoulder pads only, and the fifth day full pads are allowed.
EDIT: Yep. bmbender found it and posted it in that thread:
(d) During the first two days of the acclimatization period, helmets shall be the only piece of protective equipment student-athletes may wear. During the third and fourth days of the acclimatization period, helmets and shoulder pads shall be the only pieces of protective equipment student-athletes may wear. During the final day of the five-day period and on any days thereafter, student-athletes may practice in full pads.

...think about the film industry for a few years. Nice touch having the interview in the game room.
August 11th, 2010 at 8:49 AM ^
at all. This format is way more entertaining and informative.

I'm really impressed with Jonas. I had an art of film class with him my senior year and was always in class and very insightful. You can tell it's a big passion of his. It sounds like whatever he does after college, whether it's football or film, he'll be very happy. Great guy.

"When I'm done playing football, I'm gonna take a nap". Sounds like the life to me.
August 11th, 2010 at 9:23 AM ^
I like this format too. You get a feel for the players personalities. Maybe Jonas and Coner can team up for a run at the Sundance. (Jonas doesn't look comfortable in front of a camera though.)
I really hope Jonas and Obi nail it this year. Not just for the team, but because they both seem to be really good guys.

Sexual Chocolate!
That's cool that he is so into film, and I can honestly say this is the first football player I've ever heard say they like silent movies.

Ha, in that video, DC Stonum continues to show his great hands by tipping a D Rob pass thrown to him right to Mouton.
August 11th, 2010 at 10:47 AM ^
Call me crazy, but I think it's Roundtree.
August 11th, 2010 at 11:00 AM ^
Unless Stonum changed his number to #12.

At least the interception was not a bad read by Denard, that was a very catchable ball.

Anyone else think Jonas looks kind of like The Rock?
August 11th, 2010 at 12:46 PM ^
Just from watching the video you can see his athleticism and talent.. I really hope he steps it up this year because he could be a big player for us.
August 11th, 2010 at 6:29 PM ^
I like how they skillfully edited out Mouton getting lit up by on of the running backs. Can't really see the number of who got him though.
August 12th, 2010 at 12:27 AM ^
It's good to see that Obi Ezeh was often the first guy in line doing the drills.
August 12th, 2010 at 9:27 AM ^
For someone from Los Angeles and who's such a big movie buff . . . he's really uncomfortable in front of a camera.
