When does practice begin? Can't find info anywhere. Will Lester limit spectators like Fleck did?

I haven't seen any information at all about fall camp. I just saw that the team got their headshots done today. I'm guessing camp will start the 2nd week of August.

Thanks, that makes sense actually. 3 weeks of fall camp, then game week.

I had read something about new NCAA rules not allowing two-a-day practices anymore but instead adding a week or two to the practice time. Must be I got that wrong.

No, you are correct. Also must have a day off each week too (no practice, meetings, lifting - anything).

So, last year, Terrell would've organized SOMETHING on that off day...playbook & Bible study or something. Who are our "captains" this year?

It seems like the Broncos have always started practice the first week of August, so we are not really getting any additional practices in, right?
