I"m just happy to think about how long Brandstatter has been doing this, and how it's great that the succession of AD's since Don Canham have realized what a treasure they have, and haven't "brought in their own guy" to do the show.  

Brandstatter has come a long way from a guy who was on the sideline for the 1969 OSU game, but wasn't quite ready to see game action yet.

Richard Ash looks like he's got a good motor as you should expect from any pahokee guy, but doesn't look strong enough yet for the 1 tech spot.  Might be better at the 3 tech or 5 tech.  

#20 carter, whodat?  He looks a little undersized but had some good plays.  Seemed to have good football instincts.  

Bolden kinda had a meh day after a lot of hype through practice, but maybe he was just off or the play wasn't going to him. 

Poole looks like a solid contributor once he gets enough reps. 

And of course Hawthorne looks like he has the talent to run with the ones.  Whatever issue he had last year that kept him off the field, I hope he's got that all cleared up now. If he and Demens and Jake can excel as a group it could make life easier for whoever is taking snaps at our DT's.

I like that Denard has a cold, because it sounded like Borges had one in his presser as well.  They must be spending a lot of time in the film room together.
