2. Populous is not doing the stadium update. One of the guys I coached with the last couple of years is Algen Williams, who played WR for KU, and is an architect with Populous. Didn't hear who did get the gig, but plans for the stadium update are being made.
3. The fitness level of the team is very high. Most of the team is dialed in, but some of the new guys aren't where they need to be. Apparently, there is fit, and then there's Holsopple fit. The strength and conditioning coach has implemented an interesting system where the players go through regular assessment, and there are three levels. Newbies work to get to the second level, second level guys work to get to the third level. Only way you get to the third level is by getting voted in by the guys that are already there.

Thanks, that's good information, you don't mind if I share it, do you?
