WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - The Boilermakers held their second 2014 spring practice on Friday inside the Mollenkopf Athletic Center. The team was again in just helmets.
Friday's session gave another opportunity for the defensive linemen to continue working on the system and schemes. It also provided an opportunity for position coach Rubin Carter to look at his group and see who may step in to fill the holes opened by the graduation of Bruce Gaston, Greg Latta and Ryan Isaac.
Ryan Russell, Evan Panfil and Ryan Watson are among those vying for the open spots. The three returnees spoke with the media after practice and those interviews can be found below.
The remaining practices are open to the media and general public:
March 12, 13, 25, 27, 29
April 1, 5, 11 and the spring game on the 12th
