After Houston Nutt allowed the team to skip Wednesday’s evening practice, the Hogs were sluggish Thursday morning and they paid for it Thursday night. Both sides of the ball were call on to do gassers (wind sprints) for most of the evening practice after the poor morning session. Tight end Ben Cleveland (nerve in neck) will be examined by a specialist, Nutt said after Thursday’s practice. Defensive end Adrian Davis, practicing recently after a convalescence from a concussion, also was rested Thursday. Defensive end Chris Wade, back on a limited basis Wednesday from his concussion last week, took more extensive first-team repss Thursday. The following is the short list of players who didn’t practice…
right offensive tackle Nate Garner (concussion )
fullback Peyton Hillis (strained hamstring )
punter / placekicker Jeremy Davis (foot )
cornerback Shedrick Johnson (back )
