SMU “wide open” at start of spring practice

SMU football started its second year of spring practice under head coach Chad Morris Tuesday afternoon. After a 2-10 season in 2015, SMU enters the spring with few certainties on the depth chart and a goal to constantly improve off the gains made in winter strength and conditioning workouts.

“That’s our challenge, get 1 percent better each day,” Morris said Tuesday. “That’s our challenge, coaches included.”

SMU returns 24 players who started at least three games last year. Among them are the team’s leading passer, three leading rushers, eight leading receivers and leading tackler and pass rusher.
