Thank you, God.

And you too, LSU trainer Brian Kelly, who decided that the Tigers will not have a soccer game for spring on Saturday, April 12th on Saturday, April 12th. Instead, the LSU will hold open training at around 10 a.m. at around 10 a.m. at around 10 a.m.

The gates are open at 9:30 a.m. and the number of visitors is free of charge. Hopefully they won't close the gates and let people stay.

Glenn Guilbeau: Spring football should just blow away

For decades, the spring games of the LSU have usually been visited sparsely from less than 20,000 actual spectators, even after the national championship season at the Spring Games 2004, 2008 and 2020. In the meantime, places such as Alabama and Ohio State have pulled over 100,000.

Let these Goof balls have fun, because spring games are not real games and LSU football fans know that because they know football. And you know that this will not be played in spring.

LSU media members have also complained about covering the “games”. In fact, these writers and broadcasters, who were able to cover the LSU men's basketball team at the Final Four 2006 in Indianapolis, were particularly happy. It was not just a chance to cover Tigers for the first time since 1986 with the last four, but was this day in Baton Rouge, and they had to miss it.

However, many have to cover the final spring practice of 2025. Well, at least it won't take as long as the “games”.

And at least the LSU is honest and now calls a practice a practice.

“We are talking about practicing,” said All Iverson, the former Star Guard of Philadelphia 76. “No game! We talk about practice. “

In recent years since the beginning of the NCAA transfer portal of instant grists in 2021 without waiting for athletes between the schools, college trainers were even more uncomfortable in keeping spring games boring by not showing what their team can do for fear that other schools exceed the portal well.

“I think there is more of A:” Why don't we just keep our business a little better guarded than so publicly, especially with the ability to change so easily? “, Said LSU coach Brian Kelly recently.” I think there is much more a feeling for it. “

The LSU previously announced that it would have a spring game on April 12, but Kelly had refused from it since the end of last season.

The Tigers opened spring exercises last Saturday and organized their fourth training session on Friday morning. You will practice again on Saturday morning.
