Football season is nearly upon us.
The University of Miami’s 2017 fall camp opens at 9 a.m. Tuesday at Greentree Field in Coral Gables, despite nearby ongoing construction of the Carol Soffer Football Indoor Practice Facility.
Camp, closed to the public, will consist of 23 sessions and will run six days a week. Players will be off Sunday.
The Hurricanes will have three scrimmages during fall camp -- all “closed,’’ according to the written release sent out Wednesday by UM.
CanesFest, as previously reported, will be from noon to 4 p.m. Aug. 12 at Hard Rock Stadium.
