Say this for Josh Hokit, he has that recovery from wrestling thing down. The Fresno State running back weighed in at 228 pounds on Tuesday before the Bulldogs’ fourth practice in fall camp, all of it in the right places. He is bigger than he was last football season, stronger and maybe even faster, having come a long way in four months.

“Andy Ward, our strength coach, he got me right,” said Hokit, who wrestled at 197 pounds last season and when the Bulldogs were going through spring practices in March and April still was around 205, maybe 207 pounds.
