PonyFans.com PHOTO GALLERY: Summer workouts

Post by PonyPride »

PonyFans.com went out to watch the Mustangs go through one of their optional summer workouts, only to realize that the Ponies were going through some seven-on-seven drills against a group of players from Midwestern State. Without the benefit of a professional photographer, here are some photos of some of the players - including many of the new faces on the team - as they get ready for the 2013 season.

Nice photos!

Sanders looks HUGE. Gaines looks really strong, too.

Looks like a lot of guys want to be QBs. :)

I thought the same thing about Sanders. Burcham looks a lot bigger, too.

The shirts actually say Mustang Mana. I assume that is something from Hawaii. :roll:

Mana is a word in several Austronesian languages which means 'power'.[1] The concept is especially important in Polynesian cultures, and is a major part of contemporary Pacific Islander culture. And there you go. :)

Why? Because no college quarterbacks are lanky? Burcham is listed at 6-3 and 207.

By comparison, Johnny Manziel is listed at 6-1, 210. Louisville's Teddy Bridgewater (who some say is the best QB in the country) is 6-3, 196. Georgia's Aaron Murray is 6-1, 208. Texas Tech's Michael Brewer is 6-1, 183.

QBs don't have to be huge to succeed, especially in college.

I think he was referring to his face. He looks young. By the way, Davis Webb (early enrollee) has done so well that he is pushing Brewer to start.
