• It’s game week, and that has a way of healing people. Aire Justin was back at practice, which helps the secondary depth, but Nolan Washington was still taking it slow. Chantz Staden was doing a little more, as were Kristoff Williams and Toni Pole but Jared Byers was still sidelined. Logwone Mitz, who had a death in the family last week, was still gone. … As for the play on the field, it was enthusiastic, more so than usual after an off day. The elixir of game prep must have worked some sort of magic. … Marquess Wilson once more made a catch that seemed impossible, beating two defenders to grab a seemingly too-long Jeff Tuel pass during the seven-on-seven skelly drill . … A couple of plays later, last year’s freshman star, Gino Simone, dove full out to catch another Tuel throw. … And that, folks, were the highlights. … WSU returns to the practice field tomorrow at 4 p.m. and the pads will be back on.
