"I'm thrilled to death where Austin Coulling is--He's way ahead of schedule. He just needs to play and so we wanted him to get majority of the majority of reps today but he's way ahead. He's a  solid second team quarterback. Very happy, very happy where he is right now and we got a lot of practices left before we play a game," explains second year coach Scott Wachenheim.

VMI resumes spring practice on Tuesday, April 18 at 4:30 p.m. and will hold another scrimmage next Saturday, April 16.
