The Seminoles are closing in on their first scrimmage of the preseason.
Florida State was back on the practice field on Thursday morning following a day off. The Seminoles wore full pads for the second consecutive session as the defense displayed moments of dominance. The highlights included interceptions on all three of the team's starting quarterbacks.
— True freshman tight end Amaree Williams was highlighted during the special teams period for his blocking effort. Opening up room for the return man to get free, Mike Norvell and tight ends assistant Preston Brady came flying in after the play. Williams is making a case to earn early playing time. — Have a day, Lawayne McCoy. The true freshman was outstanding from the beginning to end of practice, with Mike Norvell calling the effort "a great step". He made a tough catch for the third straight session on Thursday, contorting his body and turning back to the football to make a play on the sideline with a defensive back draped all over him. McCoy followed that up with multiple routes where he created space and found room in the middle of the field.
— Kyle Morlock continues to do his thing as a receiver. Good route-running and catching on Thursday. I did notice a play where Sione Lolohea easily powered through him to stuff a run. Blocking still a work in progress. — A couple of catches for Elijah Moore, including one on a shifty route over the middle where he got a step on his defender.
— Walk-on wide receiver Willy Suarez ran a nice route over the middle in 1-on-1's to get free for a catch. — Walk-on defensive back Christian White ended up picking off Luke Kromenhoek in the end zone on an errant throw in 7-on-7. He returned it the other way for a touchdown.
