Default Does Bronco open up practices to the public?

Just wondering....with the interest that he's generating, does he "give something back" to the fans?

SC has an open practice policy that's been in place since PC took over. It can get a little crazy, but the fans have a chance to mingle and chat with the players.

Remember, Mendenhall's philosophy is that BYU is not there for the fans - the fans are there for BYU. You fans have to prove to Mendenhall that you are worthy enough to be allowed to watch spring practices and apparently you've yet to do that.

During Summer they'll usually have 3-4 practices that are open to the public, but that's about it.

However if you've special circumstances or what not, contact Jeff Reynolds (even though he sucks) directly or one of the coaches via email and see if you can get special permission to attend one. I've known this to work for a few people. Course most of them were high level donors as well, lol.

I'm just posting as to my understanding of the situation.

I get the feeling that if I didn't have ties to Emery County, you'd think I was only a schmuck.
