WP: Redskins Chat Transcript w/ Nunyo Demasio

http://discuss.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/zforum/04/sp_sports_demasio060704.htm

What's up with this:

"Training camp will be closed to the public. And media access is going to be limited."

I'm hoping ALL of camp won't be closed, jeez Coach give us a chance to catch you in action!

I cant see them in action till the regular season anyways, but i hope they let u guys in

I had heard he was locking down access to the mini-camps, but not to training camp. I hope Nunyo is wrong on this one.

what exactly does nunyo do, and what his affiliation with the redskins? would he have inside knowledge for sure?

Nunyo is the new Redskins beat reporter for the Washington Post since Mark Maske moved on to broader NFL coverage

My guess is that some but not all practices will be closed to the public

He's been covering the Skins pretty regularly for the WP lately. He seems to be at Ashburn when anything is happening.

I'm just hoping he misinterpreted Gibbs when he was discussing locking down the mini-camps.

cool, thanks guys

"Gibbs doesn’t use fullbacks so in a bid to make the team, Rock has gone down from 225 to about 215 and he's looked pretty good."

Interesting. I actually thought Rock was a bit bigger -- like 240 or something. In fact, last year's Sporting News Pro Football yearbook has him listed at 239. Then again, players' weights do fluctuate throughout the season.

Rock seems more ideal as a Ricky Ervins type of RB as opposed to a fullback anyway. 5'7" and 215 is pretty small, but he runs hard (remember the 4th and inches against Seattle last year inside the Skins own 30 yard line?).

I sure would like to see him make the roster. Is there enough room for him with Portis, Betts and Morton, along with all the H-backs?
