Spring Ball Today!!!!!!!

I have been waiting patiently for this day while this may be a tease til the season starts it is a good fix for us football junkies. Any ideas as to spring depth chart? who will emerge this season as a surprise? Football junkies unite!

On defense, I'm really interested to see Justin Kirk at Inside LB. I know he was getting playing time at the end of the season with Koebcke hurt. Also, Mark Huygens and Jordan Lacy on the defensive line. Huygens seemed to be pretty disruptive when he was in there last year, along with Lacy.

On offense, I'm guessing that Austin Howard would likely be in the 2 deeps for tight end. He is HUGE. Plus, the two transfers on the offensive line should give us great depth along with plenty of protection for Eric and hopefully huge holes for our running backs.

GO Panthers!!

Can someone who's in a position to attend practice give us some updates? In addition to the above, I'm curious to hear how Grace and our other backup QBs look, and the RBs as well.

[Jonsoup]

I agree with you Stein. I would like a update as well.

I might have missed it, but where is the practice schedule? I'd like to get out and see some, as I will miss games when I board op.

Okay, this might sound like a stupid question...at the Dome? Practice field I don't know about? Just thought I should find out...

I would say the 6:30 practices will be inside.

The 4 pm practices are variable depending on the weather and what the practice field is like.

Saturday scrimmages/practice are usually in the Dome. Depending on what is going on in the Dome.

You could always just drive by the practice fields when you get there to see if they are outside or in.

As long as the ground stays this wet. They won't go outside. Usually don't for spring ball unless it is really nice out.

[UNI Prof]

KWWL is having a practice report on the news at 10.

[GonzoCat]

I agree with you Stein. I would like a update as well.

I cannot believe Flagship Girl posted immediately after this and did not point out that it should have read "an update".

What kind of grammar queen are you FG?

[bigcat75]

Seems the injury bug

has bitten us early this spring. Anyone been to any of the practices or to the scrimmage on sat? Hopefully none of the injurys are too serious. Anyone playing well so far? I know it's early but football is football and I sure miss it during the off-season.

Injury bug? For those of us not in CF, please elaborate.

Ha ha, one who's been too busy with everything else in my life to really be on PN or go to spring practices, I guess...
