Ram Ramblings: WSSU players, coaches choosing to look ahead

WINSTON-SALEM, North Carolina  --  I didn’t quite know what I would find at this morning’s football practice.

For the first time since the 2010 season the Rams held a practice after a loss. That’s rare for Coach Connell Maynor and he said as much when I talked to him after practice.

The Rams, who dropped from fifth to 20th in the AFCA coaches poll after last week’s 25-21 loss to UNC Pembroke, will catch a break this week by playing light-weight Virginia College of Lynchburg at Bowman Gray Stadium at 6 p.m.

The Dragons, a third-year program, have only 15 scholarships and about 50 players. They have a great nickname but that’s about it so the Rams will get a chance to fine-tune their offense.
