Zim on Jacks camp & Kim Nelson stories
from Happy Hour with John Gaskins · host John Gaskins
Almost every sports movie and every "Hard Knocks" series ever made features a scene near the beginning, during an early preseason practice where some players are battling for a starting spot while others are just trying to make the team. All that testosterone and tension eventually leads to a few volcano eruptions of rage or at least visible, visceral fits of frustration. Some of this primal behavior seen on big and small screens includes coaches barking like basset hounds Guess what? It's a real thing sometimes. Sioux Falls Live sports editor saw it and reported it at South Dakota State's fifth practice of "fall camp" on Tuesday, then wrote about it here and shared more insight on Tuesday's "Nobody's Listening Anyway" podcast with the Happy Hour host. . The discussion led both men to recall funny stories from past August practices and famous intense football movie scenes. Zim unloads other observations from his day in Brookings — like Chase Mason's accuracy and any emergence of a starting running back (?), a devouring defensive line, and the one-on-one matchup between defensive lineman and Wayne State transfer Carter Sitzman and All-America offensive tackle Quinten Christensen.
