MURFREESBORO, Tenn. – Things were a little different for the Middle Tennessee football team this summer.
Not only was there a change in strength and conditioning coach – Matt Hickmann was hired in January to replace Jason Spray – but the Blue Raiders also had an adjusted focus.
In years past, the summer strategy centered around conditioning. That meant running. Lots of running.
"We used to run 18 110s during conditioning on Friday, but then they didn't have anything left in the tank to throw and catch and do all that," Stockstill said.
