1. Energy

We’ve heard all about Mel Tucker’s energy and the overall excitement around the program and fans just want to see that translated to the field.

We want to see players flying around, making big plays, and showing emotion. Yes, we get that this is a spring game and it’s hard to get up for a scrimmage against your teammates that doesn’t have any bearing on the outcome of the upcoming season, but if you can play with energy in a spring game, you’ll be more than good to go for the fall.

Tucker can bring it when it comes to energy and if that trickles down to his players, you’ll know that they’ve bought in.

It’s not that fans didn’t see a ton of energy in spring games when Mark Dantonio was in charge, but Tucker is a far different coach. It’ll be interesting to compare what kind of live scrimmage we’ll see.

Will we see guys playing like this is a real game or taking it easy because it’s not? Fans want to see the former.
