It is easy to forget that spring is a sort of beginning for the football season — people are easily distracted by the blooming flowers, nicer weather and sneezing people carrying Claritin.
But this year, all eyes will be on the lush turf of Kabam Field, where Cal football began its spring practices and a new era under head coach Justin Wilcox on Wednesday. The Bears will hold 15 practices, three of which will be available to the public, including March 24, April 8th and April 22 — the date of the annual Spring Game.
These three opportunities will be the first chance to take a look at Cal entering a new era — one without the old head coach, quarterback and star wide receiver.
