How long are our practices? What time?

*Caution Long Post*

Was just reading on TOS it was mentioned by Brock Knutson that Cockeye State had a 2.5 hour afternoon practice while he was there visiting. How long are our practices, and are there NCAA regulations to practice time?

A few years back it was mentioned that Scott liked “fast” practices and also likes to practice at the ass crack of dawn. Is this really beneficial for 18-22 year olds?

There have been many studies done that people perform better in the afternoon not super early morning. Especially younger people. Also we know how important good quality sleep is. In HS we had morning and afternoon lifting sessions. The afternoon was always higher energy.

If our players are half asleep at practice @ 6 a.m. how much are they actually taking in and how much are they actually improving? Especially with our “fast and efficient” practice approach.

How many games during the season are played at 6 in the morning? My vote would be practice at 11 every day because that is when 80% of our games are played.

Anyway, The results don’t lie when you look at Campbell vs. Frost the past 4 years. Is it a philosophy thing? Also does this play a part in why we’ve ran off so many guys? (Roughly 50% of every scholarship player under Frost)

Sorry for the rant. Thoughts?

Ah nice thank you. So guys are in around 6:30 to get taped and prepped. Do we utilize the whole 2 hr 15?

Based on the performance over the past 4 years I’d say they utilize about 10 minutes per practice

I usually walk into Hawks at 7:50 to 8 and on field at 8:30. There are 3 or 4 segments of prepractice that start at 8:15. Showered, changed, and to training table by 11.

Can't really run practice at different time because of class schedules.

Even though I don’t think it matters if it’s morning vs. afternoon, I’ve seen other colleges run them in the afternoon. I would assume it’s easier to coordinate around the afternoon than early morning.

I could be wrong but i think most probably do it in the afternoon

Now I could see practices at 11 being pretty much impossible.
