Hey you guys. ASU's practice was moved from 8:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. today. Here's the report:
ATTIRE: Shorts
LOCATION: Verde Dickey Dome
GUESTS: The San Francisco 49ers had a scout in attendance.
TILLMAN JERSEY: WR Tim White
EN VERDE (No contact): OL Marshal Nathe, OL Tyson Rising, OL AJ McCollum, LB Khaylan Thomas, CB Maurice Chandler, WR N'Keal Harry, WR Cam Smith, DB Laiu Moeakiola, DB Dasmond Tautalatasi, DB James Johnson, LS Mitchell Fraboni, TE Grant Martinez (new addition, left foot in a boot), WR Jalen Harvey
EN VERDE, PARTICIPANDO (No contact, but still taking part in drills): OL AJ McCollum, LB Khaylan Thomas, CB Maurice Chandler
OTHER INJURY NOTES: WR Jalen Harvey was out of his boot and moving relatively well. RB Demario Richard appeared to be a full participant.
ABSENT: LB Salamo Fiso, QB Bryce Perkins
PRE-TEAM SESSION NOTES:
ASU worked a lot on scoop-and-score and loose ball situations, something that has become a growing trend and point of emphasis during fall camp. The defensive line also worked on catching drills, something that actually came in handy moments later.
TEAM SESSION (strictly Nickel defensive sets, so no SAM linebacker):
FIRST-TEAM OFFENSE - Brady White (QB), Gump Hayes/Nick Ralston (RB), Tim White (WR - outside), Ellis Jefferson/Fred Gammage (WR - slot), Kody Kohl/Raymond Epps (TE), Evan Goodman (LT), Sam Jones (LG), Stephon McCray (C), Quinn Bailey (RG), Zach Robertson (RT)
FIRST-TEAM DEFENSE - Tashon Smallwood (TIGER), Ami Latu (NOSE), Renell Wren/Edmond Boateng (END), JoJo Wicker (DEVIL), DJ Calhoun (WILL), Christian Sam (SPUR), Tyler Whiley (NC), Kareem Orr (BC), Bryson Echols (FC), Armand Perry (BS), J'Marcus Rhodes (FS)
SECOND-TEAM OFFENSE - Manny Wilkins (QB), Jason Lewis (RB), Kyle Williams (WR), ML Harris (WR), Tommy Hudson (TE), Steven Miller (LT), Connor Humphreys (LG), Cohl Cabral (C), Alex Losoya (RG), Mason Walter (RT)
SECOND-TEAM DEFENSE - Jalen Bates (TIGER), George Lea (NOSE), Corey Smith/Edmond Boateng (END), A.J. Latu (DEVIL), Brandon Matthews (WILL), Parker Higgins (SPUR), Tyler Whiley (NC), Maurice Chandler (BC), Marcus Ball (BS), Chad Adams (FS) *Couldn't pick up FC
Notes:
- Brady White notably struggled, only completing one pass in two series (a wild, high throw to Tim White near the sidelines) and throwing two INTs. On the first, it was an incredibly poor read and throw that DL Ami Latu easily picked off and returned for a touchdown (it was the team's second play from scrimmage). The second, which came on third and long, was a deep post that was tipped on an athletic play from J'Marcus Rhodes and picked off by Bryson Echols.
- Manny Wilkins wasn't much better, as the second-team offense went three-and-out on their lone possession.
SPECIAL TEAMS NOTES:
- Of the kick returners, the one who appeared to have the most burst in walkthroughs was freshman WR Kyle Williams.
As always, let me know if there are any questions.
