South Carolina releases spring practice schedule, spring game details
South Carolina begins spring football practice on Feb. 26, and the school released the schedule for those practices Wednesday. Only the spring game will be open to the public.
Several Gamecocks assistant coaches, who head coach Will Muschamp does not allow to speak to the media during the season, will speak publicly, including new hires Mike Bobo and Joe Cox. Assistants who will not speak in the spring are Mike Peterson, Bobby Bentley, Bryan McClendon, Kyle Krantz, Eric Wolford.
The spring will also provide most fans with an opportunity to hear from young USC players such as Zacch Pickens, Ryan Hilinski and Xavier Legette. They did not speak to the media last season because of Muschamp’s rule forbidding freshmen from speaking to the media.
More details:
▪ Muschamp and the Gamecocks will hold the first of 15 spring practices Wednesday, Feb. 26. Muschamp will preview spring with the media Tuesday, Feb. 26.
▪ The Garnet & Black Spring Game is scheduled for Saturday, April 4. Kick time is set for 1 pm on SEC Network plus. Admission to the spring game is free. No other practices will be open to the public unless otherwise announced.
