Week Two of Syracuse Orange football training camp is underway. Tuesday was the first practice of the spring to feature full pads, which means that we got a longer look at both sides of the ball playing hard and fast. The results were... mixed.
Before I get into the practice, there was one notable absence: RG Chris Bleich. The 6th-year lineman was a “scratch” according to an SU spokesperson, but I couldn’t get any details beyond that. Bleich was wearing a knee brace that looked larger than the ones the rest of the O-line had on last Thursday; it’s only speculation right now but we have to hope his injury history isn’t continuing here.
