  1. “I know what we’re teaching. We’re teaching it hard,” said coach Paul Petrino after a high-powered opening to fall camp on the SprinTurf Field by the Kibbie Dome. “We’ve been saying it since the day we got here. We’re trying to make the players believe we’re going to be what we call grinders – guys that work hard every day; get up and go to work and improve every single day.” That mentality leads to the next step: Showtime. “We define showtime as preparation, practice and performance,” Petrino added. “Those are probably the two biggest words we keep going over and over and over.” With day one of fall camp in the books, Petrino was headed for a long night of film to evaluate what the drills really looked like. “It’s never as bad or never as good when you go in and watch it on tape,” Petrino said. “You just look at it one play at a time. You are looking for assignment and alignment and get off on every play. We’re going to be great technically sound football players and understand the fundamentals, which allows us to play the game fast.” Read more and video link: http://www.krem.com/sports/Vandals-open-first-camp-under-Petrino-218457271.html
  2. MOSCOW, Idaho Idaho quarterbacks coach Bryce Erickson says hes never been on a coaching staff that works as hard. Offensive coordinator Kris Cinkovich sees the same thing he witnessed at Arkansas coaching alongside Bobby and Paul Petrino, and what he noticed from a distance when the Petrinos were at Louisville. Its a work ethic that traces back to Bob Petrino Sr., who coached his sons (and Cinkovich) at Carroll College in Montana. We were a bunch of small-college kids, Cinkovich said. All undersized for the bigger schools. But he raised us to be tough and coached us to be tough and to work hard, and that you could always outwork the people that youre competing against. I like to think that its carried over to our coaching. Cinkovich and Erickson, whose father, Dennis, was one of the most successful coaches in UI history, were in their Kibbie Dome offices late last week as they prepared for the Vandals fall camp. As they talked, both coaches had on the same green wristband with a one-word message in block letters: GRIND. With camp starting Monday, the next four weeks will be a grind. But so too has been the last eight months for rookie head coach Paul Petrino and his staff and for the players.
