| No Comments | No TrackBacks

Football season never ends signing day was last week and now spring football is about a month away for most schools and here is the schedule for all Mountain West schools.

Guess it is time to star beefing up on the spring depth chart.  The 'Biggest Task' area is coming from Rivals.com

AIR FORCE
Practice begins: Feb. 18.
Last spring practice: March 17 (no spring game).
Biggest task: Air Force lost its defensive coordinator when Tim DeRuyter left to become the defensive coordinator at Texas A&M, but the Falcons should have a relatively seamless transition. Air Force replaced DeRuyter by promoting co-coordinator Matt Wallerstedt, who won't make any major changes to the Falcons' 3-4 scheme. The bigger concerns are on offense, as the Falcons lost all five of this past season's starting linemen to graduation.

BYU
Practice begins: March 15.
Spring game: April 10. (Tentative)
Biggest task: BYU must find a replacement for departed starting QB Max Hall. The early arrival of true freshman Jake Heaps will give him a chance to compete with veterans Riley Nelson and James Lark for the job.

COLORADO STATE
Practice begins: March 26.
Spring game: April 24.
Biggest task: Colorado State should have plenty of competition at quarterback and running back. True freshman QB Pete Thomas already has enrolled and will compete with Jon Eastman, Klay Kubiak and Nico Ranieri. The Rams also must decide how they will divide carries in the backfield among UCLA transfer Raymond Carter, Leonard Mason, John Mosure, Chris Nwoke and Lou Greenwood.
