LOCATION: Verde Dickey Dome
ATTIRE: Shells
MEDIA AVAILABILITY: About 15 minutes
GUESTS: None that I saw
TILLMAN JERSEY: None
EN VERDE (No contact): George Lea and Khaylan Thomas. Additionally, Mitchell Fraboni was on muscle beach. Did not see any of the other muscle beach guys at the usual spot. Additionally, Mark "Goose" Cosgrove was using a crutch and walking around.
EN VERDE PARTICIPANDO (Participating): George Lea
Saturday's practice was just a walkthrough of what the pregame routine will be. Position groups gathered and did there own run throughs, but we also saw a gathered team routine in the middle of the field before media availability ended.
The team ran 7-on-7s, but then did a quick team session with just one or two quick walkthrough plays. Here's what I saw for that quick 11-on-11, which featured the first team, but not a full second team:
First-team offense: QB Manny Wilkins, RBs Demario Richard/Kalen Ballage, WRs Cam Smith/Tim White (slot)/N'Keal Harry, TE Kody Kohl, LT Evan Goodman, LG Sam Jones, C Stephon McCray, RG Quinn Bailey, RT Zach Robertson
First-team defense: DEVIL Koron Crump, D-line (rotated through, so multiple guys got in): Tashon Smallwood, JoJo Wicker, Ami Latu, Renell Wren, George Lea, Tramel Topps, LBs Christian Sam/DJ Calhoun, Kareem Orr (BC), Gump Hayes (FC), Chad Adams (Bandit), Armand Perry (Field safety)
There wasn't enough time for a full second team, so a few second-teamers just rotated in. More in the notes below...
Notes and observations:
-On 7-on-7s, Bryson Echols and Robbie Robinson were part of the corners rotating in.
-During 11-on-11s, the offense rotated in second-team receivers Jalen Harvey and Fred Gammage, with Raymond Epps at TE.
-I only saw Manny Wilkins running through the pregame routine with the offense, granted the walk throughs were going pretty quickly. Probably not something to read too much into, but worth noting nonetheless.
-Zane Gonzalez kicked the extra point after the quick team sessions, but both kickers were working the pregame routine reps.
Let me know if there are any questions or concerns!
