It was like any typical spring practice, but on Friday, there was just a little extra excitement for the Boise State football team.
Though still limited from a torn ACL suffered in October, sophomore quarterback Chase Cord was throwing the ball with the others in his group in a few drills. He wasn’t doing anything that would risk him getting hit, or rolling out, or working on zone reads.
But Cord was out there throwing, cracking jokes with teammates, and coach Bryan Harsin couldn’t help but savor the moment.
“We had a smile on our faces, too,” Harsin said.
