A few years back, the Phoenix Suns changed the NBA with a philosophy of “seven seconds or less.”
A football team can’t match that, but for South Carolina in the early going of August practice, the plan isn’t to allow for much more than that.
“They say they want a play every seven seconds,” running back Rico Dowdle said. “That’s what we’ve really been focusing on is getting a play every 7 seconds. We’re doing tempo things every practice, getting our pace picked up.”
Going up-tempo has been part of the promise from Will Muschamp’s staff since he arrived.
