TALLAHASSEE, Florida -- Florida A&M's football team was hard at work at 5:30 a.m. Wednesday for the group's first spring practice session, and head coach Alex Wood said he felt good after watching his team in action."We had a chance to get players acclimated to what the expectations are in terms of our system on the field," he said. "Just stations and transitioning from one station to another, those kinds of things. We had a chance to coach them on fundamentals and the tempo of how we coach fundamentals. It was a good morning."
Wednesday practice was noticeably up-tempo, something senior linebacker Akil Blount said was good for the team. Blount led the Rattlers defense last season with 72 tackles and is one of the leaders on a team with an almost entirely-new coaching staff.
"The coaches are really high-intensity," he said. "They're moving fast with a lot of energy. It was a good first day, we just need to continue to learn and build off that."
