There was not much of anything on Gene Chizik's SEC teleconference today (not surprising, since it's Furman week). He's pleased with Chris Todd's decision-making, Darvin Adams' improvement as a blocker and Ben Tate's overall progress. Here was the one decent quote from the whole thing on Tate:

"I think Ben's grown up a lot. He's done what we've asked him to do in every way, shape and form. I think he's seeing the things he's doing on and off the field are paying off."

Thrilling stuff, huh?

To make up for it, I put together a new video from Tuesday's round of interviews. It features linebacker Josh Bynes, running back Ben Tate, cornerback Walt McFadden and defensive end Antonio Coleman answering questions leading in to the Furman game.

Enjoy. I'll be back tonight with an update after practice.
