STATESBORO - Overnight torrential downpours and a shower at the beginning of practice may have dampened the grass at Beautiful Eagle Creek, but it couldn't dampen the spirits of the Georgia Southern football team as it went through its fifth practice of spring ball Saturday morning on a cool and overcast day in Statesboro. With various high school staffs in town for the Boro Built Coaches Clinic, as well as top prospects in attendance for Junior Day, the Eagles went through a high-paced, full-pads workout for over two hours.
Senior BJ Johnson III is one of the elder statesmen of the receiving corps and has earned head coach Tyson Summers' praise for the way he goes about his business.
