Brian Maddox has been making the most of his opportunity at running back, filling in for starter Mike Davis, who’s out with a mild shoulder injury.
According to this “stock report,” safety Chris Culliver is also working his way toward more playing time… especially in the Cocks’ 4-2-5 anti-spread defense.
Defensive tackle Nathan Pepper is focusing on football, trying to bounce back from a major injury last year as well as the fact that his brother has been given life without parole for murdering a woman. That’s a lot to bounce back from.
Steve Spurrier might not be as cocky as he was this time last year, but The Huntsville Times reports that the ol’ ballcoach still believes in his team. “We’re not that far away from being a pretty good team. We’ve got ball players. We absolutely have no excuses about ball players. We need to coach better, and they got to play like good players.”
