During a drill in the early portion of Arkansas State's practice Wednesday, an assistant coach reminded the Red Wolves to stay on their feet.
Although they had helmets and shoulder pads on, it was just a thud session -- hitting without going to the ground.
That won't be the case this afternoon when Arkansas State University has its first scrimmage of fall camp on the turf inside Centennial Bank Stadium. Just more than a week into the first preseason camp of the Butch Jones era, it'll be the first opportunity for the Red Wolves' coaches to evaluate their defense in a gamelike scenario.
