Syracuse Football Practice, Day 2 Recap: Speed, Scholarships & Short Newbies

Coaches

Scott Shafer made it clear that freshmen are going to get some extended looks during practice.

"I really like the process with the freshmen because we get some 1-on-1 time with them as coaches and we can slow it down a little bit," he said.

"We split fields at times more last year. This year we're a little more condensed. Our mindset now is fewer reps and more coaching, more technique work. Not being in a hurried-up type mindset gives the coaches the opportunity to coach those 5-6 seconds of a play harder.
