[TexasTerror]

Word to Ralph and all those Bearkat fans out there across the I-AA world, spring drills is set to start this coming Wednesday, March 22nd and run through the annual Orange-White Spring Game on April 23rd. I'm awaiting final information, but the Orange-White Spring Game could be streaming over the 'Net. More on that when it becomes available...

Sam Houston State head coach Todd Whitten and his staff will welcome back 16 starters and more than 35 other returning lettermen as the Bearkats begin their five-week schedule of spring football drills.

Spring ball begins Wednesday, March 22, and continues through April climaxing with the annual Orange-White spring game Sunday, April 23.

Practices are scheduled each week on a Monday, Wednesday, Friday rotation with the team taking the field for warm-up at 3 p.m. and practice beginning at 3:30 p.m. Saturday sessions will begin at 10 a.m.

Why not? Allows us to have the auction/dinner on a Saturday so more parents, alums and such can get in. Play an early round of golf on Sunday at our 18 hole university golf course (when you guys getting one? :rotateh: ) and then catch the spring game. Our football program has always made it a complete weekend... :hurray:

Ok...sounds fair enough...just thought more parents/alums/fans could attend the game on Saturday rather than having to watch the game and travel back home later than normal.

No big deal Kats89....was just wondering.

Wasn't starting anything Freightliner. Like TT said, they make it a weekend event with the golf tournament, dinner and auction and spring game. It is a nice weekend, especially if the weather is nice like it can be in April.

And if there are baseball games to be played at the new baseball complex too....:)
