Practice is open to the public.

WORTH REPEATING

“He reminds me of those big-time receivers that I’ve worked with. He has that Roscoe Parrish kind of ability of making a play look amazing, a 5-yard hitch, he makes it into an 80-yard touchdown because he’ll make you miss on the field. I’ve told him plenty of times, ‘Hey man, you have that Dexter McCluster, Roscoe Parrish body type. You can do those kind of things.’ If we can keep him healthy, that’s definitely how we’re going to use him.”

—Southern wide receivers coach Jorge Baez, on 5-foot-8, 180-pound senior receiver Charles Hawkins
