Smart. I like early spring practice. More time to heal any injuries. And the offseason strength and conditioning doesnt get broken up. 5 straight months now to prep bodies for fall camp.

Yep, looking to see what John Wiley can do with the defense. Two season tickets were purchased online today. GO CATS!!!
