Official spring practices don't start for 2 more weeks, but the guys are putting in time in the weight room and doing drills out on the field already.
I don't know about you, but this has got me excited for next season already:

I'd imagine the position coaches are always present at these times, but is the head coach? I noticed coach fisher was always on of the first guys in there congratulating the guys. I just can't imagine nielson doing something like this with genuine enthusiasm lol.

I was thinking the same thing fisher seems to be more invested in the players and not just putting it on the assistants.vatusay wrote:I'd imagine the position coaches are always present at these times, but is the head coach?

EDIT - ok, now he went and deleted his tweet. for reference, it was Stacey Smith (sophomore WR) with a tweet saying something like "the only way I'm leaving town for spring break is if I'm going somewhere that has a gym".

They have in the past, although I think this is the first time I've seen a spring practice schedule "poster".ibleedpurpleandgold wrote:Do they typically announce the practice schedule i might try to come out and watch a little practice.
