JACKSON, Mississippi - On Tuesday, the Jackson State football team finished its second practice of the day like it did the first, by sprinting the width of the field and back.For that evening session, Tigers coach Rick Comegy added a new wrinkle - sprint down and then bear crawl your way back. With a sweltering mid-day sun beating down on them, JSU players labored on, calling on every ounce of mental and physical strength they had to take the next step.
Darius Mitchell, the Tigers barrel-chested 6-foot-3, 320-pound offensive lineman out of Atlanta, Ga., didn't have it so tough. He simply walked the rubber track that encircles the Tigers' practice field.
But in Mitchell's case, it isn't really as simple as it seems.
