Good stuff starting today. First day of Spring practice. The first of 14!
Hopefully they get the new OL coach in soon to get going with Spring football. Hopefully it's someone from a solid program in the Northeast. Hopefully it's a guy who's on younger side with tons of energy. Hopefully it's a guy who played at least the FCS level and knows how to recruit against the Ivy, PL and CAA.

Curious Why does he have to be from a program in the Northeast ?

He doesn't necessarily - but helps with knowing the types of recruits in this area.

Alaska ? A flight there would take up some of the budget ? How many high schools in Alaska play football ?

I have to think that every one of the 50 states is assigned to some coach even if there are no plans to actually recruit in those areas. If someone tells the coaching staff about a fantastic wide receiver from high academic Anchorage Country Day School then they may explore further,

[br The players were only in shells for Day 1 so not too much to see. Today they will perhaps show a little more as I believe todayโs practice coincides with the first Junior Day of the current recruiting cycle during which recruits are on campus and invited to observe a portion of the practice.

Kids are tough up there. Schools close only when temps reach -20F. Playgrounds are open air with roofs so that kids can play year round, except again at extreme temps

Pro day is underway, Kevin Stone seems like he'll be posting videos of the relevant tests/drills. Liam just did 20 reps on the bench at 225.
Jen Toland's also there and posting videos. Oliver did 15 on the bench by my count.

18 reps for John Smith.
Peter Oliver with a 37.5" vertical. That definitely surprised me.
Edit: that vertical from Oliver would have had him tied for 4th at the combine

He'd be tied for first amongst CBs at the combine. I'm assuming that'd be his NFL position, but he'd also be tied for 7th at safety (and amongst all DBs). Definitely a strong showing so far.
