Ok, the more I read, the more I like our new hires.

First came the tweets from Aaron Moorehead. Our new wide receiver coach intends to have people down field blocking for our backs (unlike certain nameless WR's this past year). When our guy says "I can say very confidently that blocking will not be an issue!", I take that as a good sign (and I like that he put the exclamation point in, too!).

Now we read this from Mike Barber's blog. Dan Hawkins, former Colorado coach on his former OL coach, Jeff Grimes:

“He brings a certain attitude to the offensive line,” Hawkins said. “I think a little bit is his personality. It’s just the man’s man approach to it. He’s not a guy who’s going to sit out there and dog cuss guys. But his approach his to be hardnosed and be no nonsense and, ‘Lets get down to business.’”
Hawkins said Grimes is more about that tough attitude and style than any particular offensive scheme or system.
“I think the biggest thing for him is that you have an identity and hang your hat on it,” Hawkins said.

I'm starting to get psyched. I can't wait to see what Grimes can do with our OL in spring practice!
