Gilde "Austria Red Devils" » everybody in the entire country in

Russell Domingo, South Africas coach, is hopeful administrators will either give players a wide berth or crack down completely when applying Law 42 - fair and unfair play - because he believes the application of artificial substances to the ball, especially in the form of edibles, occurs often.Domingo spoke to reporters about an hour before his captain Faf du Plessis hearing to face ball-tampering charges took place at the Adelaide Oval and could not comment on the specifics of the case but hinted that one of South Africas defenses could be that everybody else does it too.You see it daily with those types of instances taking place on the field. I dont want to talk about the [Faf] incident too much but it seems to be a daily occurrence on the field of play so they [the administrators] might need to re-look at that should they feel its not within the spirit of the game, Domingo said.Du Plessis was only charged when television footage of him shining the ball with saliva - while also having a sweet or mint in his mouth - was circulated the day after the Hobart Test. By then, the time for the match officials to report an alleged offence had lapsed and the ICC investigated the visuals of their own volition, after being alerted by widespread media reports. After two similar incidents in the last three years (Dubai in 2013 and Galle in 2014), in which broadcasters were also involved in bringing to light South African offences, Domingo said they feel singled out.There are other teams that have maybe done similar things and weve maybe looked at one or two instances that they have done those things and they havent been highlighted. I wouldnt say weve been targeted but weve definitely been highlighted, Domingo said. Its definitely been brought to the attention of the world and its definitely been brought to the attention of the ICC and its definitely been brought to our attention. Although it seemed pretty insignificant at the start of it, quite a lot has been made of it.Lolly-line or Mint-gate as it has been dubbed, has been on the front and back pages in the Australian press. And the South African squad have had several run-ins with the Australian television reporters which culminated in an airport scuffle on their arrival in Adelaide. Journalists were trying to get a comment out of du Plessis, who was shielded by the security officer, and has not spoken to the media since the Hobart win. Despite the possibility of a one-match ban, Domingo said du Plessis was holding up well.Its never pleasant when everybody has got an opinion on you and people have judged you before rulings have been made. Thats the nature of the world at the moment, everybody has got an opinion and can air it. When you are constantly seeing yourself in newspapers and have things written about you, I suppose it does weigh you down at times, Domingo said. He is a tough and resilient man and the team really supported him and surrounded him to lessen the load on him.South Africas entire squad stood alongside Hashim Amla at the MCG when he called the ball-tampering allegations a joke, last Friday and said South Africa believed their captain had done, absolutely nothing wrong. Amlas address took place before du Plessis was charged, but even in hindsight, Domingo does not think they would have handled it differently.We are a unified team. We stand by our captain. We stand by the decisions weve made. They might not have always come across as the ideal way to do things but at that time and space we thought those were the right things to do, he said.Perhaps surprisingly, South Africa have been buoyed by this fight, even though it has marred their preparation for their first pink-ball Test. Two days ahead of the day-night game, they were not sure whether their captain would be able to take the field with them or whether they would be allowed sweets, when they step on the park. But they were very sure theyre in it together.Hopefully these incidents do galvanise the team a bit more. Theres definitely a feeling of togetherness and unity in the group and a lot of support for the current captain, Domingo said. Its been an interesting few days. Weve had a wonderful tour here, its been great, weve played great cricket. Weve had long discussions and our focus now is purely on cricket. It hasnt been ideal preparation. I would be lying if I say its been spectacular preparation but our focus is totally on the cricket.

Note: The Calgary Flames announced Tuesday that Sean Monahan would not be made available to Canadas World Junior team. Recruiting analysts say its tougher to project which top prospects will succeed in college at quarterback than at any other position.A look at their rankings bears that out.Only one of the top nine quarterbacks in the 2013 class started more than three games for the school that originally signed him, according to composite rankings of recruiting websites compiled by 247Sports . Thats No. 2 Christian Hackenberg, who played three seasons at Penn State before being drafted in the second round by the New York Jets.By comparison, nine of the top 15 overall 2013 prospects regardless of position are in the NFL after being drafted in the first two rounds.I dont think its hard to evaluate the physical skills that are required to play the position, Alabama coach Nick Saban said. But I think some of the most important things in playing quarterback are decision-making, judgment, timing, leadership, accuracy under pressure, and those things are much more difficult to evaluate until a player is actually called upon to do that in your particular system, even in some cases.Just four of the top 20 quarterbacks from the 2013 class are currently starting for the schools they originally signed with: Ohio States J.T. Barrett (No. 10), Tennessees Joshua Dobbs (No. 13), Stanfords Ryan Burns (No. 15) and North Carolinas Mitch Trubisky (No. 19).The other four starters from the top 20 are transfers, with only one at a Power Five school. Charlottes Kevin Olsen (No. 5) originally signed with Miami. Utahs Troy Williams (No. 7) started out at Washington. Northern Iowas Aaron Bailey (No. 12) transferred from Illinois. Louisiana Lafayettes Anthony Jennings (No. 20) came from LSU.It is a tougher position to evaluate, said Barton Simmons, the national scouting director for 247Sports. Theres a litany of factors why, the primary one being that quarterback moreso than any other position is all about intangibles.You obviously have to have ability to be successful, but the great ones are the ones that have some things you just cant measure, whether that be toughness or leadership ability or the ability to make plays in big moments and compute all the different things that a quarterback has to absorb over the course of a game, play or season.Coaches encounter similar problems trying to decide which quarterbacks to pursue without knowing their mental makeup.What you dont see on film is leadership, Mississippi State coach Dan Mullen said. Its hard to evaluate the processing of information and intelligence because a lot of times you dont know what theyre being coached to do (in high school).In an era of 7-on-7 tournaments and offseason camps, quarterbacks are seen more often in a variety of different environments before they ever arrive on campus. Simmons believes that generally has made it easier to evaluate but notes analysts occasionally can get bamboozled by how someone fares in these settings.Simmons remembers how Michigans Shane Morris performed so well at 7-on-7 events that it was tempting to ooverlook his so-so high school completion percentage.dddddddddddd Morris, the No. 3 quarterback in the 2013 class, according to the 247Sports Composite, has started only two college games and hasnt thrown a single touchdown pass.Former NFL quarterback Trent Dilfer says quarterbacks shouldnt be judged solely on how they perform in those types of controlled environments. Dilfer works as a head coach of Elite 11, a quarterback competition for prospects across the country.The analogy I give all the time is what if the PGA Tour went and gave you a card based on how you hit it on the driving range? Dilfer asked. It would be such a different PGA Tour. The guys that actually get the ball in the hole and know how to compete and how to overcome swing flaws and bad days and wind gusts and bad lies and all the other things that come with it, theyre the guys who win.Mike Farrell, the national recruiting analyst for Rivals, says 7-on-7 events and camps can measure a quarterbacks physical traits. High school results can show how he performs in game situations. But theres still a key element missing.The one thing you cant replicate when youre scouting a high school quarterback is a 280-pound future first-round defensive end coming around the edge in his face, Farrell said. What is he going to do then?It isnt just the high bust rate of top prospects that reveals the difficulty of projecting which quarterbacks will succeed in college. There also are the quarterbacks who outperform their rankings. Consider the case of Louisville sophomore Lamar Jackson, the early Heisman Trophy front-runner who was rated a three-star prospect (on a scale of five) by multiple recruiting services.Farrell, whose service rated Jackson as a four-star prospect, understands why the former Boynton Beach High School star has exceeded expectations.We didnt know that running away from everybody in South Florida would translate to running away from everybody in the entire country in college, Farrell said. He looked fast, but he didnt look this fast.Jackson also found the right spot at Louisville playing for Bobby Petrino, and perhaps thats the biggest key to projecting success.Dilfer isnt convinced that its more difficult to evaluate quarterback prospects, noting highly regarded recruits at other positions also often fail to live up to their rankings. But he does believe that finding the right school is more important than having the most talent.Do you fit where youre going? Dilfer said. Do you fit athletically? Do you fit in terms of your ability to actually (play) quarterback? Do you fit into the style of play they use? Do you fit into the culture? Do you fit into the school? Do you fit into the social environment?Its all about fit.---AP Sports Writers David Brandt and John Zenor contributed to this report.---Online: The APs college football page: http://collegfootball.ap.org ' ' '
