MEMPHIS, Tenn. – The Next Step begins for Tigers football.
The University of Memphis football team opens its 2016 spring drills Tuesday, and since he was hired Dec. 4, 2015, first-year head coach has been pounding the pavement about the Tigers taking that "next step." For Norvell, that "next step" process starts this spring.
"We're ready to get after it," said Norvell, who comes to Memphis from his deputy head coach/offensive coordinator position at Arizona State. "We've been looking forward to this since we got back here in January. We got through recruiting, and we've had the opportunity to be around the guys through their morning workouts.
