  Draft Scout by Conference









  Mississippi State football has been busy already this offseason, getting new coaches and transfers in the mix. Under new head coach Zach Arnett and new offensive coordinator Kevin Barbay, among others, the Bulldogs held their first practice of the spring on Tuesday. Familiar faces like starting quarterback Will Rogers were mixed in with newcomers like Mike Wright, the Vanderbilt transfer who offers something different to the offense as a dual-threat quarterback.

Testing out Rogers under center instead of in shotgun formation and utilizing running backs more often, this offense will look different than the Air Raid scheme made famous by the late Mike Leach. But that doesn't mean it will lack excitement. "It was different," Rogers said. "We started practice really, really fast with some up-tempo plays. It was good to be out flying around with the guys and learning new schemes, so we're all trying to get the hang of that." This was not only Barbay's first practice with Mississippi State, but it was Arnett's first spring practice as head coach. Barbay's tenure at Appalachian State saw the Mountaineers finish 21st in the country last season in rushing offense at nearly 205 yards a game. That means Mississippi State's running back corps, led by Jo'quavious "Woody" Marks, will see plenty of touches this fall. - The Dispatch
