Jackson State QB Ivy rusty in first practice back

JACKSON, Mississippi  -- In a way, offensive coordinator Timmy Chang was happy LaMontiez Ivy did not complete every pass.

“There’d be nothing to coach,” Chang joked.

Pegged as Jackson State’s starting quarterback, Ivy showed signs of rust on Tuesday afternoon when the team held its first practice.

But his performance wasn’t anything alarming, especially considering he missed nearly the entire 2013 season due to an ankle injury.

“Well, like I said, all this stuff is a work in progress, especially for him because he get any spring,” coach Harold Jackson said. “He threw the ball, but there wasn’t any contact or anything like that . But I tell you, I think by the time we’re ready to tee off, I think he’ll be ready.”
