2007 Training Camp

The New Orleans Saints announced on Thursday, June 21 that they will be returning to Millsaps College for their 2007 training camp. The club will hold its annual summer training session on the campus of the Jackson, Miss. school for the second consecutive season, with players due to report July 25.

"We learned last year the value of having the team together as a group in the atmosphere that Millsaps provides," said team Owner and President Tom Benson. "Everyone at the school and in the city worked hard to make our stay a success last year, which is something we all appreciated. And we're close enough where not only our fans from across the region can come and drive to camp, but we have the unique opportunity of bringing our team to the fans we have here in Mississippi and the Gulf Coast, it is important that our fans attend practice and be a part of our preparation for the season."

"We are proud to have the New Orleans Saints back with us this year and look forward to the excitement that always rolls in with the team," said Millsaps College President Frances Lucas. "The presence of a professional football team on the Millsaps campus was a very positive experience for the college and community last year, and we look forward to opening our doors to them again this season."

The team will conduct 28 practices on the campus starting on July 27 with a morning practice starting at 8:50 am. A detailed training practice schedule will be posted under the events calendar on NewOrleansSaints.com on a regular basis, with dates and times of practice being subject to change due to weather and other extenuating circumstances. The team will depart Jackson on August 4 traveling to Canton, Ohio for the Hall of Fame Game on August 5, against Pittsburgh. The team will officially break camp on Sunday, August 19 with the final practice at Millsaps taking place on the morning of August 17.

"We're extremely pleased to be heading back to Millsaps this year," said Saints Executive Vice President/General Manager Mickey Loomis. "Training camp is a crucial time for a team to come together and prepare for the upcoming season, and the campus at Millsaps gives us the right environment to focus on that process."New Orleans Saints 2007 - 2008 Schedule

I would be soooo excited....what am I saying I already am! Lucky Millsaps College....how FUNN would that be to have the Saints training at your college!!!!!

Beach Runner · 07-22-2007, 09:25 PM

YAT ALERT!
Back in the day when the Saints played at the Tulane football stadium, we braced ourselves on campus for Sundays when the yats (as in, "Where y'at, Mar-tha?") invaded campus. Pretty hilarious, yet annoying when you're hung over but trying to get your homework done for Monday classes.

Coincidentally, when I was a freshman at Tulane and really homesick (begging my parents to let me come home and go to Emory), the first game of the season was against the Coons, and I attended that game. I mean, we had Falcons season tickets since their first year in Atlanta, so it was part of my Sunday ritual after church. So, of course, I was for ATL. We actually lived on Falcon Drive before the neighborhood transitioned. Now Andrew Young lives in my former 'hood.

SAINTS LOOKING GOOD!
New Orleans had a strong offensive showing on the stat sheet, racking up over 250 yards along in the first half, but could only manage three points despite three long offensive drives. The Saints finished the game with 379 yards of total offense, nearly double that of the visiting Bills (209).

“I was pleased with the effort both the offense and defense showed there to start the game, particularly after last week,” said Saints Head Coach Sean Payton.

Quarterback Drew Brees completed 12-of-14 passes for 118 yards, hitting seven different receivers in just one quarter of play, and guided the Saints on two long drives to begin the game. “We like to keep defenses off guard and spreading the ball around does that,” said Brees.

Saints at Bengals

Doug Miller, NewOrleansSaints.com
Saturday, August 18, 2007 - 9:30 PM

Cincinnati, Ohio-In front of an announced crowd of 65,227, the second largest preseason crowd in Cincinnati Bengals history, the New Orleans Saints picked up their first win of the 2007 preseason with a 27-19 victory over the Bengals.

Deuce McAllister opens the scoring

The Saints scored first and never looked back, at one point owning a 29-12 lead late in the fourth quarter before the Bengals managed to make the score look a tad bit more respectable.

"There were some good things that happened out there tonight," said Head Coach Sean Payton. But that were some things there in the second quarter that went down hill there for awhile and we need to get that cleaned up. That didn't please me very much."

The Saints out-gained the Bengals not only on the scoreboard, but also in key stat categories such as: first downs (21-20), total yards (283-267) and passing yards (216-180).

30A Skunkape · 08-19-2007, 08:13 AM

The offense is really going to be fun to watch this year;Brees was perfect on his one series, and his two best WRs (Colston and Henderson) were sitting the game out

If we can get just a little more defense than we did last year, who knows...

Bobby J · 08-19-2007, 09:44 PM

I wonder how they will play against a real team!!!! I can not resist! Da Bears!
