There is talk of changing Spring football games from simply large practices that happen to be open to the public to scheduled scrimmage games against teams from rival universities...
"The American Football Coaches Association board meets in Arizona next month, possibly proposing NCAA rule changes that would allow schools to scrimmage"
"It wouldn't be unprecedented, though, because other college sports do it."
"Mark Dantonio discussed it a couple years ago at a Big Ten Coaches meeting....the Big Ten and Mid-American Conference could perhaps form a partnership."
"I think it would be a great idea," Hoke said.
"The NFL does it, why shouldn't we?"
Scout:
Spring football may soon have a new look.
