Gonna be a beautiful high 60's/low 70's kind of day to open with!!

I assume except for the ones stated as open, they are all closed?

 

[DaddyBill]

Besides the spring game on 4/17, which practices are open?

All practices are closed...only thing that will be open is the Spring game.

So far all the reports I have seen say none are open except the Spring Game ....as yet. We can hope.

 

[DaddyBill]

Well if the rivers don't rise and God's willing, I will be at BDS the evening of April 17...party of nine.

You may be able to get access to some as family of a player. I am not positive or certain how but I think that recruits and players families can gain access to some closed practices.

I'm sure there will be a couple of saturday scrimmages open as usual

They usually open up 1 or 2 for Fall camp.

Might not open up any for Spring.

 

[Techster]

For some reason I thought they open up one or two Saturday scrimmages during the Spring. Didn't they open one up for season ticket holders only last year?

 

[Go4Tech]

Let's hope the strength and conditioning are as good as last year. Do not recall significant injuries during spring. Getting through spring without injuries would be a really good thing!

They did. I remember watching Custis one Saturday morning run the ball hard, and was pretty excited about it. Then he didn't play during the spring game at all, and it was wet as all get out.

Hope they open do the same, but doesn't sound like it.

Do you guys think they're closing all of the practices because we're implementing shotgun?

I was told they weren't going to this year, but hopefully that changes.

I heard on 680 that we probably won't ever see the shotgun again.

Course not...it's the Diverging Diamond formation inspired by the Ashford Dunwood/I-285 interchange The A-back crossing B-back motion will be the bomb!
