(4/13) Practice wraps up Thurs., Stoops impressed and more.
Sooners wrap-up spring practice Thursday: The next-to-last practice of the spring didn't feel like spring at all Wednesday. With temps soaring to near 90 degrees in Norman, the mid-April afternoon provided summer-like conditioning for the Sooners as they worked at the Bud Wilkinson practice facility. The two and one-half hour workout featured a first look at the two-minute drill. "Not bad for the first day," Stoops said. "The offense really handled it quite well. It was good work. The defense was good too. They got their class and worked in a good way." A short scrimmage on Thursday will conclude the 2006 edition of spring ball for Oklahoma. Stoops said the coaching staff will decide Thursday morning as to the exact length of the scrimmage. (SoonerSports Release)
Offense improves with practice: Bob Stoops said he was impressed with how his offense handled the drives, especially considering it was their first time to run the hurry-up offense this spring. "Not bad really for our first day really doing it," he said. "Our offense really handled it quite well. It was good work." A similar set of circumstances may arise at today's scrimmage, the last action for the team this spring. "We'll talk about it. I don't know that we will scrimmage it," Stoops said. "We just wanted to work on it today for a little bit. We may work it tomorrow in the team session before the scrimmage." Stoops said the squad could get somewhere between 25 and 35 snaps.
