per Joe:
The Gophers hope to entertain their faithful again Saturday, even though it was 67 degrees for last year’s spring game and will be about 30 degrees colder this year.
It will be the first spring game for Tracy Claeys as a head coach, the first one as Minnesota’s offensive coordinator for Lakeville native Jay Johnson, and the first spring game period for quarterbacks Demry Croft and Seth Green.
Under former coach Jerry Kill, the Gophers went with an offense-vs.-defense format for the past two spring games and rested many top defensive players to prevent injuries.
Claeys was determined to hold an actual game. He divided the roster into two teams — Gold vs. White — for two 40-minute halves with running time.
“I just want the kids to have fun,” Claeys said.
