Yesterday was the first day of spring practice for the Michigan football team.

0:10.1

Today is tomorrow is practice number two Saturday.

0:13.3

Third practice, I believe, is the first practice where they can put the pads on.

0:16.5

And so obviously into next week, just to really get to know more.

0:19.5

And they being the new coaching staff will really get to know about their new football
