I think the 50% off merchandise tent will be open before the scrimmage, and the baseball team plays at 4 PM afterward. Several other U of L sports are in action at home on Saturday as well...
I'm surprised that the spring game this Saturday isn't going to be televised. FSU and Clemson was, so why not for us?
The only times ESPN are interested in us is when Katina is involved.
In the past it has always been free parking in the stadium lots with no pass requirement. Only problem is there isn't any traffic control like they have for season games. I wasn't there last year though. With the weather supposed to be perfect there will probably be a big crowd. I plan to go and stay for the baseball game at 4.
Lots open at 08:00. Going to be a great day temps in the mid 70s no rain. Hope we have a big crowd.
I think this year will set a record. Perfect weather and NOT on Thunder weekend.
I will have the pleasure of roaming the sidelines for this scrimmage game. Suh-weet!
U of L should live stream it on the inter-web so we out of towners have a chance to see our Cards in action.
Geez, his ball was looking pretty and accurate. Spinning great looking spirals all day. Dropping lone distance dimes. Jackson was getting time; receivers were getting separation, and LJ was putting it right in stride. Sure will be awesome if we can do all of that when it counts. TE Cole Hikutini is a star in the making.
The 2nd didn't put up much resistance but LJ also didn't take off and run like last year very much. I really like the flair pass to the RB. He showed a lot of touch on those. How did Bolen look with the red team in the 2nd half?
Bolin wasn't too sharp today. He threw 2 picks, and it could/should have been more. Quite a few high balls on shorter routes bouncing off receiver's hands, there for the taking. But to be fair, he WAS quite a bit better running with the red team in the 2nd half.

WHAT!? I'm quite sure that the uahkay cayuts will have close to 150,000 in attendance at their spring game. Also, it looks like the infield on Derby Day up there.
GO CARDS - BEAT EVERYBODY!!! God Bless America!!!
I was hoping they would be able to redshirt Pass but I don't see that happening after watching Bolin yesterday.
You really don't redshirt talents like Pass in this day and age...not a good look with HS Players...even the highest rated players at a Blue Blood don't reshirt anymore.
I don't worry in the least about Bolin. He has proven his worth to me with his ability to step in and win games. The key with him is giving him time in the pocket. If he gets that, he can put move the ball,
He's serviceable in a pinch, but we saw last year he's not going to carry this team if he has to.
If we run the ball well KB can be very effective leading a balanced attack under Coach BP if called upon
Provided he progresses once on campus, I think Pass has the potential to be a great QB. With that said, I think that they should absolutely red shirt him (provided LJ stays injury free) to allow him to become ingrained in the playbook without wasting a year in what might be a mop up only role. It would be different if LJ was a junior. Spreading out the classes - particularly as far as the QBs go, is invaluable.
If Kyle fails there's always Reggie to fall back on. I think it's in Passes best interest to redshirt and put some distance between he and Lamar.
Pass will at least be in the backup position when he gets on campus, I'm excited to see LJ improve...that needed to happen for him to keep the starter position...but Pass will be a very close second and as we have seen every year, the back up QB will be a very important part of our success...probably start 1 or 2 games...I predict we will see Pass with significant minutes this year. KB may get some quality time as well, we've gone to the 3rd QB many times over the last few years...regarding RB, his days behind center may be numbered and that is a good thing.
