Another new wrinkle for the Tigers this spring has been the introduction of the "Big Cat" drill, which is a one-on-one full contact drill between and offensive player and a defensive player. "We started this practice out with a "Big Cat" drill and that is something we will do every day in pads," Miles said.

Kicking off the practice - at least the part media was privy to - was an intense hitting drill Coach Les Miles calls the “Big Cat” drill. In a nutshell, it’s a no holds barred contact drill pitting one teammate against another in a tight space (in between dummies laid on the ground) where there’s no wiggle room, just running straight ahead, hitting and driving through that person for some time … until Miles mercifully blows the whistle. ... [Les Mile said:]: “It is a great way to get practice started.” ... Football sports information director Michael Bonnette told me shortly after the drill that the Big Cat was “new this spring” and that although the team conducted the drill Thursday after reporters left, Miles “decided to let you guys see it today.” After that, players broke into individual drills based on positions.

thats good stuff

thanks OP

man I am ready for some football!!!!

 

Thats what I'm talkin about. Make them aggressive as you can and make it a point that they want dominate their opponet from start to finish. I believe thats what separate Saban's teams from the rest, the mentality he instills in his players.

I know yall dont like Saban references but its the truth. I dont like him anymore than the rest of you but thats what makes him so successful

I am sorry I know about Coach Miles !!!

who are you talking about???:tigereye:

 

This. I actually stood up out of my chair to watch that part! I think the team is already completely invested in RS. They were INTO that matchup.

 

I look forward to NOT having to start basically a redshirt frosh at QB for a change.

By the way, what's the news on Chris Garrett at QB??? :hihi:
