Quarterback Eddie Battles' struggles were glaringly obvious against a defense that was very disruptive. The defensive pressures were enough to overshadow what seemed like a battle brewing for the back-up quarterback role. But while the offense couldn't do much during FAMU's first scrimmage Saturday, coach Joe Taylor said he didn't see much that was unexpected. More than anything else, he was upbeat about the progress he saw on defense.
"This first scrimmage is mainly to try to find the personnel: who's willing to fly around and who is willing to make some contact," Taylor said, praising the defense that forced turnovers and interceptions.
"That gives you a sigh of relief because you wouldn't want it the other way around. Usually this is what happens. I told them usually this is how it works out." Taylor said changes in personnel and schemes are likely after he reviews each player's performance on film.
