RIP spring games


They have had cancer for years but now appear to be ready to have the plug pulled. My favorite quote here is Ruhle saying they have become a showcase for other teams to recruit their players. As a olden who remembers the Varsity Alumni game at venerable Husky Stadium fondly it is kind of sad but understandable

Modern cfb offseasons have quietly made it the hardest for blue blood schools that are used to just being able to horde depth with "the brand" alone.

All about the history of the Alumni Varsity spring game in the 60’s and early 70’s ~ it was a blast to watch… go watch the crew race, then following the crew race, watch the spring game.

I don’t see any upside to a spring game for the program. I get Alabama when they fill their stadium for fan engagement but we all know it’s a cash grab.
