Newscenter 16 Sports Director Jeff Jeffers sat down with Irish head coach Charlie Weis for a 1-on-1 interview on Wednesday.
Weis talked about a number of subjects including his philosphy of his players "diving right in."
"I think that there's more jumping in every day," Weis said to Jeffers. "It isn't like you got 105 diving in, but everyday, you see more."
"I think that, you always know when you start the year that you know the handful of guys that you can count on. But you know, there's so many other guys, that it's not a question whether they're good football players. It's whether or not they buy in."
The Irish are certainly still in the middle of seeing who will dive right in as they continue double sessions and the training camp mentality.
"I think that every day there's more and more and more," Weis continued. "And that's a good thing."
Because they do not play their first game until September 6th, the Irish do not begin preparing for San Diego State until Friday.
