Summer football workouts

Today. There was an article in The Advocate this morning. Everyone is enrolled in classes except Terrance Alexander.

Eta: Alexander doesn't graduate from Stanford until next month.

The article mentions 7 on 7 being the most important part of summer workouts. So, that's your QBs and WRs working together.

So I’ve always been curious, how do these 7 on 7 practices work?

I’m not asking what is a 7 on 7; but it is always said that these are “voluntary” and not organized or conducted by coaches, so how do they get organized? I mean we are dealing with college kids who are not only doing this to get better, but are competing for playing time. So I find it hard to believe they would be the ones to say time, place, who runs with who, how many reps each player gets, what plays are run, etc. So is there a GA (at the direction of coaches) or someone who oversees these since they are technically not a coach? Just curious about the logistics of how this works.
