The Gators are entering the throes of preseason practices as competition heats up for starting roles. Tailback was a position already locked up, but top rusher Montrell Johnson is sidelined by a minor knee injury. His timeline is TBD a little more than three weeks before a season-opening visit from Miami. The Gators’ depth and talent will be tested at a critical spot, but Billy Napier is confident he has the roster and culture to overcome obstacles. During the latest Swamp Things, Edgar and Mark catch up on the opening week of camp and what lies ahead.
