Johnson C. Smith Golden Bulls add versatility, wildcat

CHARLOTTE, North Carolina - Johnson C. Smith isn’t sitting on last year’s offensive laurels.

The Blue showed added versatility in a 35-15 win against the Gold in Monday’s intrasquad scrimmage, with new offensive coordinator Steve Shipp using the wildcat formation and integrating an upgraded corps of pass-catching tight ends.

“For the first time this fall, we played as a team,” said Golden Bulls quarterback Keahn Wallace, last year’s CIAA rookie of the year. “You can see us kind of molding together with a new coordinator. He was trying new positions and called great plays to get (the defense) into new predicaments.”

“I’ve been concerned all spring because we were banged up (along the offensive line) going into the spring game, but the momentum went to the offense tonight,” J.C. Smith coach Steve Aycock said. “The momentum went in their hands. Our defense didn’t look like our normal defense.”
