tone for the day.
Punt team goes good today because Keith Bostic
and I make a couple of nice adjustments on our
blocking. Keith is probably the best athlete on our
team. I enjoy playing next to him plus it makes me
work harder. He's really a special guy and we've
become good friends.
Practice goes smooth for the next half hour. I am
finding myself a little confused at wolf but I don't
have time to worry about it. Scrimmage begins and I
am thinking that I just have to play hard and not
worry about the mistakes of a new position.
A handful of returning starters is allowed to watch
the scrimmage from the sidelines. This gives them a
rest - just for a day.
Getting roughed up
Things started rough but gradually got better. I
begin by missing a tackle on Larry Ricks. (Believe
me, defensive back is different from quarterback).
The thing about being in a new position is that you find
yourself always out of position.
Most of the scrimmage I found myself getting
bounced around by linemen and tight ends. I now
know what it feels like to get blocked by our center,
Tom Dixon, on a trap play.
Occasionally, though, I did make a nice play ands
things didn't end up as bad as I thought.
By 6:15 practice was over. I felt some relief and I
was tired. I had taken some hits but had given a few
also. It was a good experience for me to learn a dif-
ferent position in the heat of battle.
After a quick shower and a couple of ice packs we
all head to South Quad for our training table meal.
Meals are always good and make for a nice way to
wind down the day. As I'm eating, I'm already
looking forward to the next practice so that I can get
after it again.
