It’s hard to believe during this March Madness run with the basketball teams, but the spring football season is right around the corner.

And by corner, I mean next week.

Starting Wednesday, the UK football team will begin spring practice. For nearly four weeks, the team will prepare for its upcoming fall season with four weeks of practice under new head coach Joker Phillips. The spring game will take place April 24.

I’m hoping to have a few posts from the spring season, but it will be considerably less than last year while the basketball teams are playing. I promise that you’ll still get your spring fill, but until I’m able to hop on the beat, check out a few links on the Web:
