Fresno State practices in full pads on Tuesdays and Wednesdays when on its normal game-prep schedule and on the second of those days this week running back Dejonte O’Neal might very well have juked himself into more reps when the Bulldogs take on Toledo at the Glass Bowl.
O’Neal had scored a touchdown in the victory over Sacramento State, making a deft cut to avoid a defender. But he went about 10 times better on this live run drill.
Breaking off the right side, O’Neal encountered a cornerback who closed in and squared up, then went low because one has to if they are to get to a 5-foot-6 ball carrier.
