Starting quarterback struggles during Navy football scrimmage

Navy was running a two-minute drill during a scrimmage situation on Saturday morning when offensive coordinator Ivin Jasper was forced to scream timeout from the sideline.

Valuable seconds were ticking away and starting quarterback Zach Abey had not thought to call the timeout himself. The Archbishop Spalding product got an earful from Jasper about that mistake, which could prove costly in a contest that counted.

Jasper also screamed at Abey for throwing a pass up for grabs when his receiver was out of bounds and therefore not eligible to make the catch. Jasper emphatically made it clear that the only possible results of such a decision were an incompletion or an interception.
