NORFOLK, Virginia -- Norfolk State's so-called "secret scrimmage" on Saturday didn't teach Spartans coach Robert Jones anything about his team.But he hopes his players figured out something about themselves.
In an unofficial, two-point home loss to Division II Virginia Union, NSU started slowly and played catch-up before falling short.
Jones, who begins his third season as head coach when the Spartans visit South Carolina on Nov. 14, said the performance hammered home a point he's made throughout the preseason.
"I didn't learn anything," Jones said, being careful not to name Saturday's opponent as he honored the college game's clandestine preseason protocol. "I think they had a big lesson they learned. It's something that we've been preaching to them in practice about playing with a consistent level of intensity."
