Linebackers coach Robert Bala is looking for versatility.

SEATTLE — Just how grueling is one day of training camp for the Washington Huskies?

“You really want to know our whole schedule?” Drew Fowler asks.

Well, sure. And the sixth-year senior linebacker obliges.

“We’re in the building by 6:30. We have about two hours of meetings before practice. We’re going to talk about practice. Then we practice,” Fowler said after Wednesday’s — say it with me — practice. “We’ll come back in, coaches have got to run away for about an hour, hour and a half, break down the film. We get to shower, eat, get some treatment, and then we’re back essentially meeting until about 5, 6 o’clock. We’ll lift probably from 6 to 7, walk-through 7 to 8:30, and we’re out of here by 9 p.m. Rinse and repeat.”

It’s safe to assume breakfast and dinner happen somewhere in there, too. Coach Jedd Fisch implored his team following their second practice of training camp to eat more during meals, especially in the mornings, and has touted the school’s increased investment in nutrition.

The Huskies practiced for a little more than two hours on Wednesday morning, wearing shoulder pads and shorts after spending Tuesday’s practice in full pads. As such, there wasn’t much scrimmaging. But I do have a few observations and thoughts to pass along, including some continued experimentation on the offensive line.
