Aug. 30, 2009 CORAL GABLES, Fla. - Just eight days prior to the team's 2009 season-opener, the University of Miami football team held an afternoon practice in shells Sunday at the Greentree Practice Fields.
With the opener set for a week from Monday at Florida State on Labor Day night, the Hurricanes are slowly transitioning their attention from training camp work into FSU game preparation. The team worked for just under two hours.
"Most of the time as coaches, you probably say `hey, I can't wait for (the season) to get started'," head coach
Randy Shannon said. "Then when you are closer to the game, you are still always looking for more time to get prepared.
"At this point in time, the physical work has been done. There is competition in practice and getting guys to understand what to do offensively, defensively and on special teams has been handled."
