GAINESVILLE, Fla. — It is about that time for the helmets and pads to come out of the closet and the cleats to be placed on the feet so toe can meet leather… well almost.
Yes, it almost time for spring football to get underway in the Sunshine State which gives coaches a look at the talent they will have to work with this fall while giving the fans a glimpse into the future.
With that said let’s take a look at some of the hype that teams have been pushing out there on social media
Leon (Tallahassee) is ready to roll with spring football given the GIF that was used:
