There is a noticeable improvement in size and athleticism and athletes passing the "SEC-ready" eye test. Multiple examples on the O-line and D-line, at RB, TE and WR and LB. We are seeing bigger corners and safeties but size at those positions hasn't translated yet to physical or competent play at those positions.

What I haven't seen is an improvement in physical fitness or physical development in our juniors and seniors. This is the second year in the program of the new S&C guy and I see a ton of big bellies and not necessarily improvement in muscle mass of our juniors and seniors.

Please explain why this message is being reported.
