Penn State Football: Nittany Lions Open Spring Practice for 2016 Season

Penn State starts its 15 spring practices in preparation for the 2016 season.

The Penn State Nittany Lions start the path to the 2016 season with 15 practices this spring. Head coach James Franklin and his team kicked things off Friday, and will continue through April 16, the date of the annual Blue-White Game.

This is an important season for Franklin, as he brought high expectations with him to Happy Valley, but has had his share of struggles through his first two seasons. However, with the effects of the sanctions finally in the past, the Nittany Lions can move forward with a full arsenal of players.
