STATESBORO – The Georgia Southern football team took to the turf at Allen E. Paulson Stadium Wednesday as the Eagles continue to push through the grind of camp in preparation for the Aug. 31 opener at LSU. It was a spirited practice in shells that the staff was pleased with as they finished practice at the expected time, meaning there was little doing things over and everyone was in sync.
Following practice, the players were treated to shaved ice from the Kona Ice truck
The team will help with Operation Move-In and take part in the Eagle Creek Baptism on Friday, which should break up the repetitiveness of camp and classes start on Monday. The team will also hold its second scrimmage of the preseason on Saturday, followed by the first
President's Kick-Off, which everyone is invited to.
In today's coaching interview,
