Coach Tuesday Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 I understand that he wasn't even at the OTA. It was voluntary. Spikes, Fat Mike, and several others also skipped it (check out www.billsdaily.com ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROSCOE P. COE TRAIN Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 Ex-Canes return to practice in Miami Former Hurricanes in the NFL have a habit of returning to their alma mater during the offseason. They prefer to train at the University of Miami instead of practicing with current teammates or coaches. That is the kind of faith athletes have in the strength and conditioning program at Miami. Now young players from other schools have gotten into the routine. Two such players who made an appearance at UM's Hecht Athletic Center this year are the Green Bay Packers' Javon Walker (Florida State) and the New York Giants' Plaxico Burress (Michigan State). Both wide receivers are clients of agent Drew Rosenhaus, who is notorious for representing former Canes. An impressive list of UM products who worked out in Coral Gables this year includes: - Green Bay Packers TE Bubba Franks - Buffalo Bills RB Willis McGahee - Washington Redskins WR Santana Moss - Washington Redskins RB Clinton Portis - Washington Redskins FS Sean Taylor - New York Giants TE Jeremy Shockey - Indianapolis Colts RB Edgerrin James The closed sessions are run by UM strength coach Andreu Swasey and are administered separately from current Hurricanes. The regiment has NFL players working out on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday beginning at 11 am ET. They lift weights, run sprints, and make their way through a sandbox. To improve explosiveness, athletes do shuttle runs, practice high-stepping, and tip-toe through ladders. They play informal basketball games to aid their fitness level. Though some NFL coaches wish young stars would exercise under the guidance of their employers, most respect the professional atmosphere fostered by head coach Larry Coker and his staff. They also understand the tradition at the University of Miami, which began with players returning in the early 90's to mentor young Hurricanes, is unlikely to end soon.

BillsGuyInMalta Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 Hey, at least Willis McGahee is working out down with his buddies in Florida. I have this feeling that Big Mike didnt make it to the OTA because he needs to dedicate himself to Burger King's new breakfast menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks completely different from last season. Far better shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UHSLA Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 The team can't make OTAs mandatory - doing so would violate the CBA. But there is an expectation that players participate. I think it's unfortunate that all the guys don't participate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on he is such a great football player and a team player who always works hard. 346264[/snapback] He's doing the smart thing and not risking an injury that would jeopardise a trade.
