The SEC has adopted new practice rules for football recommended by the NCAA Sports Science Institute. The recommendations will change some aspects of year round FB practices like cutting down on live-contact during practices in the regular season and preseason.
In any given seven days these are the recommendations from the NCAA.
Preseason:
*Up to three days of practice can be live contact (tackling or thud).
*There should be a minimum of three non-contact/minimal contact practices in a given week.
*A non-contact/minimum contact practice should follow a scrimmage.
*One day should be no practice.
Regular Season:
*Three days of practice should be non-contact/minimal contact.
*One day of live contact/tackling should be allowed.
*One day of live contact/thud should be allowed.
The recommendations were supported by all SEC AD's, Presidents and Chancellors.
My, my, have things changed since I and many of you played.

Step, I remember one year in the fall we practiced three times a day for six straight days. Two of the practices were in full pads. All I did was practice, eat and sleep.
Hurt more than helped because we were so xxxx tired that many of the practices were a waste of time. Idiot coach!

Agreed, in fall camp teams got worn down and they were not prepared for the first few weeks. However, it did allow for teams to get better in the season. Will be interesting to see the dichotomy from week one to say week nine
