The Troy football team caps off spring practice Saturday in Veterans Memorial Stadium with the annual T-Day scrimmage, the second such under coach Jon Sumrall.
The game begins at 2 p.m. and will allow fans to see a lot of new faces dotting the rosters as the Trojans are coming off a 12-2 record a year ago, Sun Belt Conference and Cure Bowl championships and a final national ranking of 19 in the AP poll.
Wide receivers: This might be the most intriguing position group to watch in the scrimmage after losing top receivers RaJae’ Johnson and Tez Johnson . Jabre Barber returns from a lower leg injury that caused him to miss the bulk of last season and he appears healthy and ready to go. It also gives returners Marcus Rogers, Deshon Stoudemire, Peyton Higgins and Devonte Ross a chance to step up, along with the likes of transfers Chris Lewis and Landon Parker opportunities to shine.
Defensive front: This may be the strongest part of an all-around strong defense that has plenty of quality returners along with some impressive newcomers. T.J. Jackson , Buddha Jones , Richard Jibunor , Javon Solomon and Luis Medina are among the names across the front that Trojan fans are well familiar with.
Special teams: This is an area of concern with the loss of placekicker Brooks Buce and punter Mike Rivers to graduation. Returners Scott Taylor Renfroe and Zach Long appear to be battling it out for the time being at those positions, but those are also positions that Troy may dip into the transfer portal to add into the competition before the start of fall practice. Quentin Skinner returns as the long snapper.
