| The Miami Hurricanes completed their first week of spring practice today with their third day of practices at the Greentree Practice Fields. The team worked in full pads in contact drills for the first time of the spring. The Hurricanes will not practice next week, which is spring break for the University of Miami. "We got to see a lot of players today," said head coach Larry Coker, especially on defense, where we played a lot of players at different positions and some young players. Both quarterbacks really made some nice plays, and (wide receiver) Ryan Moore really stepped up and made some extremely nice plays." Of the three days of practice, Coker said, "I saw some encouraging things. We had three good days, and I'm glad we got all three days in before spring break. Now we have a chance to evaluate.

We have to make sure they take some hits. We don't want to get guys hurt, but they have to get hit," he said. "We have some scrimmage opportunities to see that. We did some inside run drills today, and guys were making the three-and four-yard gains. That's a pretty good gain for an inside run |
