The Miami Hurricanes will kick off spring football in a matter of weeks, with the first practice taking place on Saturday March 3th.
For fans looking to get in on the action the first open practice will be the following day, the caveat – “Fan Appreciation Day” is only open to those who purchase a ticket to Miami’s home baseball game against Florida later in the day. Practice will take place 10am to noon, with first pitch for Canes vs. Gators taking place at 1pm.
Official practice days for spring football 2012: March 3, 4, 5, 6, 20, 22, 24, 27, 29 and 30; April 3, 5, 10, 12 and 14.
Besides the one “open” practice, there will be three scrimmages for fans to take in this spring – March 24th from 10am to noon at Ted Hendricks Stadium in Hialeah, March 30th at Bishop Verot High School in Fort Myers, with a 7pm start, and an April 14th spring game at Sun Life Stadium, kicking off at 2pm.
Spring football is in the air, Canes fans. Three weeks until Al Golden and staff get this thing rolling. Stay tuned.
Woot! I can’t wait for the football program to get rolling again. Coach Golden and the rest of the staff will hopefully push these guys to make them competition ready by fall. The hours and dedication spent in the spring will pay dividends in August. You reap what you sow.
GO CANES!!!
