Saints are seeing early progress from Stephone Anthony as he tries to rebound from a frustrating season

He has a good coach now. It won't take long to figure out if he's got it or not.

My high school history teacher failed me because I was bored, never applied myself and didn't earn a passing grade. He was possibly one of the most boring speakers I've ever had to sit through. When I went to college my professor was a creative picture painting genius. I saw battles coming to life and could see history unfold in a fascinating way. History then became my minor in college.

It's funny what a good teacher can do for people after giving the students the proper tools to succeed. I'm hoping for Anthony to put it all together with Nolan showing him how to do it. He started with all the right tools and hopefully it was Joe Vitt that just confused him rather than tailoring a method of coaching that would specifically suit him.

Usually it's the Sam who comes off in nickel or dime but it doesn't have to be that way.

We talked about this last year and Anthony's rookie year...

I remember our Free Safety called all our defenses...

Typically it's someone who has a good view of what's happening...

So a MIKE, FS, or SS makes sense...

Boy, Rugs, you nailed it...

My Senior Year, I spent the last three weeks lunch period with my Physics teacher...

He couldn't understand how I could score so high on the ACT in science and be horrible in Math...

In those weeks, we did a "refresher" of Algerbra, Trig, Calc...

My Freshman, Sophmore College years - Mathematics classes were my strongest and easiest taken...

It takes a willing student and a patient teacher; sadly most of my teachers didn't have patience with me and were just mailing it in for the check...

Will always be grateful to my HS Physics and Geometry Teachers for what they did for me...

Even if I rebuilt their Lister Engine Generator for their Camp in trade...

Ten years ago I wanted to pursue physics and after sitting down with a Physics professor he said that my math back ground would limit me to being only a theoretical physicist. I truly suck at math, but if I've got to suck at something I'd rather it be math instead of drinking!

Exactly. I'm of the thinking that his collegiate coaching carried him through his rookie year...

And then between D.A. and Vitt, he got thrown off course as in only his second year...

Nolan will provided stability for the linebackers and make it the strength of not only the defense, but the team...

While my personal preference is for Anthony to start at the Mike, I just want to see him get a real shot with a real LB coach...

Kaztenstine a day later with similar report, analysis, and more quotes from the Saints HC, DC...

Where does Kline fit in? Maybe Dennis had no idea what he was doing with Stephone last season, no? I'm sure Nolan has spent countless days of film study to see why SA was not successful last year & how he plans on fixing it.

I think if SA succeeds, it's going to be at the MIKE position. Coach em up Nolan!

Surely you can't be serious! Of course I'm a genius! I know all about boobs,cats and theoretical physicist!
I took a bullet in the labrum over Macho Grande!! I told them not to send George Zipp on the mission too! They should have sent "The Kid" and don't call me Shirley!

Heard a rumor from the Saints Training Camp!

What is it?

That place on Airline where the Saints practice!!
