WSU wrapped up its third practice of spring football and Brian and Christian Caple have it covered in enough detail to keep you busy reading until game two of the CBI final tips off at 4 p.m.
Brian's notes from practice can be found here. They include a ridiculous 20 bullet points. For those of you who still want more, Christian's blog post is also stocked full of details. After Mike Leach gushed over him on the radio Monday, it sounds as if Andrei Lintz had another strong practice Tuesday. Although he was only targeted 11 times last season, Lintz proved to be a capable receiver. He averaged 8.7 yards per target, which was the second highest total among WSU players with at least two targets. He also led the team in first down percentage at 71.4 percent.
