Spring game

Are we going to have a Spring game this year? Or will it follow the cycle we had last year? With more focus on practice and strength/conditioning ?

we haven't had a spring game since probably 2011. doubt that changes. i assume they'll go one the same schedule as last year to allow more time for S&C

I remember going to one in 2012. It was cold, but I had fun. Wish it was a little later in the spring.

That's the thing with Boone, even in April it could be snowing.
I'd love to be able to go to a Spring game, but I can also understand if there isn't one.

The evidence, a historic 11-2 season, suggests that Scott and his staff were/are on to something in having spring practice early, leaving more time for the team to devote to S & C. It has paid awesome dividends. I wouldn't expect a change of strategy unless there are other significant factors to be considered this time around, i.e. situations or circumstances that have no satisfactory work-around.

I went to the Spring game in 2012, it was cold but an awesome time. It was when I was first introduced to Simms, I met his parents. I also picked up on the fact that our passing was going to be awesome, our defense was a force, and we had something to look forward to. I will assume that we are not having one and follow the practice schedule that they had last year. If this is the case then I am happy. As always go Apps.
