Chelsea football continued its preseason preparations. There was one thing that made this day notable: it was the first day of full-contact practice! There was violence…

…and the constant threat of violence…

…and more violence.

Coach Brown the Younger might have been working on defensive line spacing…

…or he might have been pushing the lineman aside to rush the passer himself.

Either way, the linemen got their own chances to rush the passer.

When the afternoon practice session wrapped up, Coach Bush told the team a bedtime story.

The story involved lots of pointing. Brady Hoke would be proud.

Before they took a break for dinner, the position coaches talked to the players. Coach Schumann talked to the quarterbacks, a position group that seems to have a hard time remembering the school colors. Hint: they’re not red and white.

Quarterbacks: can’t live with ’em, can’t feed ’em to Brian Urlacher.

This is Coach Schumann’s first year on the Chelsea football coaching staff, but it’s not his first experience with Chelsea football: he’s a CHS grad. He’s been coaching elsewhere for a while, but obviously the gravitational pull of Chelsea football was too great for him to resist. Welcome back, Coach Schumann!
