Coach Rhett Lashlee said he has been happy with how his offense has performed so far in camp.
"The last three days have been great," Lashlee said.
Nick Marshall and Jeremy Johnson have been sharing snaps with the first team, though Lashlee still has yet to name Johnson the starter for the Arkansas game on Aug. 30.
"Jeremy's best practice has been the last three or four days," Lashlee said. "He's more confident and stepping up."
Lashlee praised Marshall as well, saying that he has been steady throughout.
"Nick's best day was yesterday," Lashlee said. "He threw the ball really well."
Lashlee also spoke of Jaylon Denson's return from injury.
"Jaylon's doing well," Lashlee said. "It's on us to manage him to get him to that first game."
Speaking on the running back situation, Lashlee said you can never have too much depth.
"In the league we play in, you can get to the number four or five [running back] real quick," Lashlee said.
Jonathan Wallace, who is battling for third-string at quarterback, received the most praise from Lashlee.
"Jonathan's that guy that I could sit up here for 30 minutes and sing Jonathan's praises," Lashlee said. "There's not a better young man on our team."
