Hey guys! It's been a while, but good to be back with these practice reports. Here's what I saw today:
Attire: Pads and shorts
Media Availability: About 35 minutes
Guests: Ray Anderson, Rocky Harris, Damarious Randall, representatives from Higley HS
En Verde: LB Brandon Matthews, LB Christian Sam, LB Laiu Moeakiola, DL Emmanuel Dayries and OL Marshal Nathe
Stretch Songs:
"March Madness" by Future
"Come On Feel The Noize" by Quiet Riot
Now, onto actual practice:
The team began the day in the "tackle circuit" in its first day in pads, more technical based and fundamental teaching than just flat-out hitting.
We also saw the first team tempo 11-man session of media availability this spring. The offenses ran without defenses for the first session, and looked like this:
FIRST TEAM: Bryce Perkins (QB), Demario Richard (RB), Cam Smith (WR), Tim White (WR), Ellis Jefferson (WR), Kody Kohl (TE), Evan Goodman (LT), Sam Jones (LG), Tyler McClure (C), Stephon McCray (RG), Quinn Bailey (RT)
SECOND TEAM: Brady White (QB), Kalen Ballage (RB), Fred Gammage (WR), Terrell Chatman (WR), Jalen Harvey (WR), Raymond Epps (TE), Zach Robertson (LT), Steven Miller (LG), Cade Cote (C), Connor Humphreys (RG), Mason Walter (RT)
THIRD TEAM: Manny Wilkins (QB), Nick Ralston (RB), Ryan Jenkins (WR), Eric Lauderdale (WR), Jay Jay Wilson (TE), Grant Martinez (TE), Quinn Bailey (LT), Sam Jones (LG), Tyler McClure (C), Mitch Struhs (RG), Corey Smith (RT)
They then lined up for full 11-on-11, and looked like this:
FIRST-TEAM O: Brady White (QB), Demario Richard/Kalen Ballage (RB), Cam Smith (WR), Tim White (WR), Ellis Jefferson (WR), Kody Kohl (TE), Evan Goodman (LT), Sam Jones (LG), Tyler McClure (C), Stephon McCray (RG), Quinn Bailey (RT)
FIRST-TEAM D: JoJo Wicker (DL), Ami Latu (DL), Tashon Smallwood (DL), A.J. Latu (DEVIL), Salamo Fiso (SAM), DJ Calhoun (WILL), Marcus Ball (SPUR), Chad Adams (FC), Gump Hayes (BC), Armand Perry (FS), Kareem Orr (BS)
SECOND-TEAM O: Manny Wilkins (QB), Nick Ralston (RB), Fred Gammage (WR), Terrell Chatman (WR), Jalen Harvey (WR), Raymond Epps (TE), Zach Robertson (LT), Steven Miller (LG), Cade Cote (C), Connor Humphreys (RG), Mason Walter (RT)
SECOND-TEAM D: George Lea (DL), Jalen Bates (DL), Renell Wren (DL), Koron Crump (DEVIL), Edmond Boateng (DEVIL), Khaylan Thomas (SAM), Carlos Mendoza (WILL), Maurice Chandler (FC), J'Marcus Rhodes (BC), Das Tautalatasi (FS), James Johnson (BS)
Bryce Perkins ran the third-team offense.
The team then transitioned into a goal-line set. Defensive linemen Christian Hill and Tramel Topps each rotated in on defense, while Manny Wilkins led the offense.
As always, let me know if you have any questions.
