Good show! I just emailed Brady, to thank him for having JJ on. I also asked him to cut the music down, it makes it difficult to hear the conversation.

Practice is going to be in the mornings? Is that through the whole spring?
Surely that won't carry over to the fall, right?

according to the interview...JJ said practice would be in the mornings. I assume he is referring to the fall as the student athletes wouldn't have had time to switch their schedules before spring classes started. Just what he said on the show...

Coach Jones has practice during the season at 7:00 a.m.

This allows the kids to be college students for the entire rest of the day after nine or so.

This is what he has always done, and it has always worked for him.

It would probably discourage staying out too late, on weeknights as well.

Or they can just go straight to practice from a night out. They can always sleep in class.

Some media folks are going to have to change their late-night ways, too.
