Odds and ends
At quarterback, Jackson
Tyner ran the first-team offense, Sam Glaesmann operated the second-team unit, and
Shawn Stankavage and Evan Marshman largely split thirdteam duties. Tyner looked solid, steadily moving the offense up the field for a Giovanni
Gentosi score on the opening drive. Glaesmann’s performance left something to be desired, partially because he was flushed out of the pocket so often —something that could be a consequence of the relative depth on the offensive and defensive lines. He was ‘”sacked” at least three times. …
Based on Monday’s scrimmage and the practices that preceded it, the starting offensive line could be solidifying. From left to right, Uzoma Osuji, Jack Greene, Shea Baker, Joseph Dill and Sam Pierce may constitute the starting front. Players such as Florida-transfer Andrew Mike, Cole Elms and Corbin Smith saw action with the second team. …
While special-teams coordinator Pete Lembo continues to weigh his options at placekicker, punter may be a position where the Owls are spoiled for choice. Preseason All CUSA selection Jack Fox spent a portion of Monday’s practice casually bombing 50-yard punts downfield. The Woodlands product Chris Barnes also looked impressive, regularly launching the ball from the 10-yard line past midfield during drills.
