  Lubbock Avalanche-Journal’s Don Williams on the NCAA looking to overhaul their schedule and offseason practices and workouts:

  The Division I FBS Oversight Committee has introduced a proposal to change the current legislation governing spring practice and summer workouts to two out-of-season practice periods with a total of 21 on-field workouts. The duration of the two practice periods may not exceed seven weeks, and neither practice period may exceed five weeks.

  For preseason practice — that is, the usual August camps — FBS teams would be allotted a 27-day window to have 21 practices, down from the current 25.

  McGuire said he likes the thought of about 12 spring practices and then eight NFL-style OTAs [organized team activities] in June.
