TALLAHASSEE, Florida -- Day 1 of fall camp at Florida A&M dealt with logistics and informative discussions to set the tone of the season.
For the second day of practice, the Rattlers focused on conditioning to create a solid foundation for mental and physical durability.
Overcast skies and a saturated practice field set the backdrop for a series of timed 110s (110-yard sprints). This grueling sprint drill equated to a mile in length.
Players were divided into groups from skilled positions to big linemen as they ran from sideline to sideline.
As time progressed, so did the level of fatigue for the players. However, the constant reminder echoed from the coaching staff was to overcome the mindset of weariness.
"One thing we talk about is adversity comes in all forms. We get to choose how we respond," said coach Willie Simmons.
