“He’s working on rhythm, consistency of drops, the progressions of the offense. I think he’s also now fine-tuning his relationship with the receivers,” said 2nd year Bulldogs head coach Sonny Cumbie. “I think he picked up exactly where he left off in the spring if not better.
“It’s nice to come back out again and build camaraderie with the guys, (and) build a relationship with the guys. Just even coming out today, working on that chemistry on some of these routes and plays,” said Bachmeier. “That’s the first time we’ve done eleven on eleven in a long time so that was nice to get back to it.”
Coming off back to back 3-9 seasons it’s imperative for coach Cumbie to get 100 percent buy in from the entire roster.
