Hurricanes football coach Mark Richt on Thursday reminisced about his University of Miami playing days, when he and his teammates would practice through rain storms, lightning included.
“In my day we just kept going,’’ he said. “We felt for the guy who was filming [practice] in the filming tower, like, ‘Could we at least let him come down?’’’
On Thursday, the sun was blazing, the sky was baby blue, the lush, green palm trees provided some made-for-Miami — or in this case, Coral Gables — scenery from inside the cavernous, partially constructed Carol Soffer Football Indoor Practice Facility.
