Concerns grow, particularly offensively

JONESBORO -- Butch Jones walked off the field after Arkansas State University's first scrimmage of spring camp Saturday with three full pages worth of notes and critiques, and that was before the Red Wolves' first-year head coach made it to the film room.

"There's a lot of things we know we need to improve on and improve on immediately," Jones said. "I don't like where we're at right now in terms of our toughness and our mentality. But we have a lot of time to continue to improve on that."

Jones cited tipped passes at the line of scrimmage and defensive communication as highlights, but harped on ASU's shortcomings -- namely, its offense -- following spring practice No.
