Football’s third season (or second, depending on your priorities – regular season, recruiting, spring football) has arrived on The Hill.
That’s right, spring is in the air and so are footballs.
The Bulldogs will begin spring practice March 30 at 4 p.m. at Louis Crews Stadium (all practices are at Louis Crews Stadium and open to the public).
