Butch Jones is waking up early these days. He's got that edginess, wondering what situations his team has yet to cover through the opening week of fall camp.
This morning, he's likely got penalties on his mind.
Arkansas State University racked up 16 flags in its Saturday scrimmage, a practice session that ran for about an hour and 45 minutes and featured 112 snaps as well as live special teams. The scrimmage was closed to the media and public.
Jones told reporters afterward that he felt the scrimmage was his team's "most productive day" of camp, but he lamented the fact that his team hasn't had officials on hand through the first week of practice.
