Wrote today about kids being knuckleheads in the offseason, which really starts now for players. It’s final’s week at WVU and then the players have some time to vacation before they return to school and football, though out from under the watch of coaches.

Teams start heading toward their ultimate destinations now. Players can wander at any time and they sure don’t have trouble finding trouble in a season, but this is different. There is liberation involved now and those coaches who crave control and craft practice plans down to the minute and game plans that cover every variable imaginable really have no control.

They simply slide back in the pocket, throw one deep, close their eyes and trust their players won’t drop the ball.

“We encourage them to take a vacation,” Holgorsen said. “Vacations don’t exist at Thanksgiving because you’re playing games. They don’t exist at Christmas and New Year’s because you’re playing games. So this is the only time guys really get.

“We encourage them to get out of here, but with that comes responsibility as well. We remind them a whole bunch of eyes are on them and we remind them if they want to be a part of the program, they have to do the right thing.”

Well, check out WVU’s Pat Eger, Tyler Anderson and Will Clarke at Pro Performance’s spring flag football league. This was how they spent their Sunday.
