South Carolina State worked out in full pads for the first time Wednesday during its 9 a.m. drill that lasted a little over two hours. The Bulldogs did not have live hitting in the workout.
“We had a really good practice,” said Pough. “It was our first day in full pads and I thought the players moved around pretty good. We got a ways to go yet, but all-in-all, I think we are moving forward a little each day. Enthusiasm and the intensity level remain high.”
The Bulldogs added another phase of the kicking game during Wednesday’s drill, giving attention to kickoffs for the first time, according to Pough. “We devoted some time to kickoffs,” said Pough, “taking a look at both our kickers to see which one is consistent and which has the stronger leg. It’s early, but I think we will do well in that department.” Pough noted that his team also emphasized some situational drills in the team’s offensive and defensive passing game.
SC State begins alternating two-a-day workouts Thursday, with an 8:30 a.m. practice and a 7 p.m. evening session. The Bulldogs will hold their annual “Press Day” Friday, beginning at 9 a.m., and conduct their first scrimmage that evening, beginning at 7 o’clock.
