Schools have been canceling their spring game, claiming it leads to injuries and tampering. Kalen DeBoer recently spoke to Pete Nakos, saying there will be chaces to Alabama's format.
“A lot of times here, the A-Day Game, it’s been more of a practice, and there’s been some scrimmaging, not necessarily much of a game,” he told On3. “Even when I was at Fresno State, we called it the spring preview. Especially this year, there’s some things we’re working through with some injuries and so forth. So it’ll definitely be modified. We want to try to have some type of event around April 12.
“I understand why some of the programs are doing things they’re doing. We certainly understand the impact that putting things out there for the whole world to see, what that can do, especially related to the transfer portal, whether it’s guys in or guys out. I get all of that, and I know there’s different reasons for different programs.”
