Jackson State O-line adjusts to challenges of newest scheme

JACKSON, Mississippi  -- As the rain continued to pour and the first sound of thunder was heard, Jackson State canceled its spring football practice on Friday morning, rescheduling it for next week.

But before the players and coaches dispersed, new offensive line coach Tommy Poynter met with his nine linemen, hoping to hammer a message about the last four practices.

“I told them, ‘Guys, in these next few days, these are the most pivotal days of our spring. I’m expecting us, when we leave spring ball, to feel good that we’ve got everything installed, that there’s no questions in our mind about guys understanding how to line up, guys understanding what they’re doing and guys understanding how to do it,’” Poynter said.
