-Indoors most of the practice - they went outside for the tail end
-What's the status of Ethan Barr? CCL said: "Ethan's focus is on getting healthy and re-inserting himself as our starting linebacker. What we've done is strengthen the guys that are around him and so now, there's going to be an opportunity to keep him fresh as the year goes and play more people, which is the goal." Langston Patterson has played very well in Ethan's spot (alongside Kane), which makes this situation a little more intriguing.
-Ken Seals was slinging it today. He doesn't have the arm talent Swann does, but I'd say he's one of the better backups in the conference, which is a really good spot to be in if you're Vandy.
-Former wide receiver Daveon Walker switched to No. 16 and is now playing cornerback. I tried watching him closely today. He looks like a receiver that just switched to corner, but he may have to play at that spot this season, especially if injuries occur. He was actually matched up vs. Sheppard occasionally today. Sheppard said, "It's weird, he's been in a white jersey the whole time, but seeing him there, we're just trying to encourage him. It's hard to move from receiver to DB, especially when you've been a receiver you're whole life. We're just trying to be there for him and help him out."
-Patrick Smith is starting to look more explosive
-Junior Sherrill keeps showing out
-AJ Newberry keeps making plays. He's very explosive. They call him "crazy legs" in the running back room.
-Walter Taylor had another BOMB today that was eye-popping
-Martel Hight is everywhere
-Gabe Fisher had a really good block that had Lustig screaming. Don't be surprised if Fisher develops into a solid player down the road for this program.
They'll be off tomorrow and then practice Saturday morning before Sunday's scrimmage, which is closed to the public.
